Fabric
Interior general precautions
Cleaning the lap/shoulder belt
webbing
Remove dust and loose dirt from fab-
ric with a whisk broom or vacuum
cleaner. Clean with a mild soap solu-
tion recommended for upholstery or
carpets. Remove fresh spots imme-
diately with a fabric spot cleaner. If
fresh spots do not receive immediate
attention, the fabric can be stained
and its color can be affected. Also, its
fire-resistant properties can be
reduced if the material is not proper-
ly maintained.
Prevent caustic solutions such as
perfume and cosmetic oil from con-
tacting the dashboard and door trim
because they may cause damage or
discoloration. If they do contact the
dashboard, wipe them off immedi-
ately. See the instructions that follow
for the proper way to clean vinyl.
Clean the belt webbing with any mild
soap solution recommended for
cleaning upholstery or carpet. Follow
the instructions provided with the
soap. Do not bleach or re-dye the
webbing because this may weaken
it.
Cleaning the interior window
glass
CAUTION
If wax for synthetic leather con-
tacts the dashboard and door
trim, it may cause stain and blot.
If the interior glass surfaces of the
vehicle become fogged (that is, cov-
ered with an oily, greasy or waxy
film), they should be cleaned with
glass cleaner. Follow the directions
on the glass cleaner container.
CAUTION
Using anything but recommend-
ed cleaners and procedures
may affect the fabric’s appear-
ance and fire-resistant proper-
ties.
Cleaning the upholstery and
interior trim
Vinyl
CAUTION
Remove dust and loose dirt from
vinyl with a whisk broom or vacuum
cleaner. Clean vinyl surfaces with a
vinyl cleaner.
Do not scrape or scratch the
inside of the rear window. This
may result in damage to the rear
window defroster grid.
