At least every spring, flush these
materials from the underbody
with plain water. Take care to
thoroughly clean any areas where
mud and other debris can collect.
Sediment packed in closed areas
of the frame should be loosened
before being flushed.
With the use of modern trim
materials it is very important that
proper cleaning techniques and
cleaners be used. Failure to do
this on the first cleaning may
result in water spots, spot rings or
setting of stains, all of which
make it more difficult to remove
on a second cleaning.
The portion of the following
cleaning instructions that are in
ALL CAPITAL LETTERS are
especially important and MUST
be followed.
Dust and loose dirt that
accumulate on interior fabrics
should be removed often with a
vacuum cleaner or soft brush.
Vinyl or leather trim should be
wiped regularly with a clean
damp cloth. Normal trim soil,
spots or stains can be cleaned with
conventional cleaners.
Remember These Basic Steps
Before Cleaning
1. Remove stains as quickly as
possible before they become
"set."
2. Use a clean cloth or sponge
and change to a clean area
often. (A SOFT brush may be
used if stains persist.)
3. Use solvent-type cleaners only
in a well ventilated area; also,
do not saturate the stained
area.
4. If a ring forms after spot
cleaning, clean the entire area
IMMEDIATELY.
5. Follow specific instructions on
the cleaning products' labels.
