Cleaning -> INTERIOR for Your Ford Explorer SUV Third Generation (2002-2005)

Cleaning  
INTERIOR  
For fabric, carpets, cloth seats and safety belts:  
Remove dust and loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner.  
Remove light stains and soil with Motorcraft Extra Strength  
Upholstery Cleaner (ZC-41).  
If grease or tar is present on the material, spot-clean the area first  
with Motorcraft Spot and Stain Remover (ZC-14).  
Never saturate the seat covers with cleaning solution.  
Do not use household cleaning products or glass cleaners, which can  
stain and discolor the fabric and affect the flame retardant abilities of  
the seat materials.  
Do not use cleaning solvents, bleach or dye on the vehicle’s  
seatbelts, as these actions may weaken the belt webbing.  
LEATHER SEATS (IF EQUIPPED)  
Your leather seating surfaces have a clear, protective coating over the  
leather.  
To clean, use a soft cloth with Motorcraft Deluxe Leather and Vinyl  
Cleaner (ZC-11–A). Dry the area with a soft cloth.  
To help maintain its resiliency and color, use the Motorcraft Deluxe  
Leather Care Kit (ZC-11–D), available from your authorized dealer.  
Do not use household cleaning products, alcohol solutions, solvents or  
cleaners intended for rubber, vinyl and plastics, or oil/petroleum-based  
leather conditioners. These products may cause premature wearing of  
the clear, protective coating.  
UNDERBODY  
Flush the complete underside of your vehicle frequently. Keep body and  
door drain holes free from packed dirt.
