Vehicle Care
Cleaning Procedure Type of Stain Use lukewarm water and rinse by dabbing with clean water. Indelible pencil, cocoa, chocolate, pastry with cream or chocolate, ice cream or mustard. Use lemon juice, wipe with lukewarmwater and rinse by dabbing with clean water. Vinegar, hair gel, tomato sauce or coffee with sugar. Use ethyl alcohol, then dab with water. Dye transfer and all other stains.
Clean the instrument panel and cluster lens with a clean, damp and soft cloth, then use a clean, dry and soft cloth to dry these areas. • Avoid cleaners or polishes that increase the gloss of the upper portion of the instrument panel. The dull finish in this area helps protect you from undesirable windshield reflection. • Do not use any household cleaning products or glass cleaners as these may damage the finish of the instrument panel, interior trim and cluster lens.
• Wash or wipe your hands clean if you have been in contact with certain products such as insect repellent and suntan lotion to avoid possible damage to the interior painted surfaces. • Do not allow air fresheners and hand sanitizers to spill onto interior surfaces. If a spill occurs, wipe off immediately. Your warranty may not cover these damages. If a staining liquid like coffee or juice has been spilled on the instrument panel or on interior trim surfaces: 1. Wipe up spilled liquid using a clean, soft cloth as quickly as possible.
CLEANING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LENS
WARNING Do not use chemical solvents or strong detergents when cleaning the steering
wheel or instrument panel to avoid contamination of the airbag system.
Note: Follow the same procedure as cleaning leather seats for cleaning leather instrument panels and leather interior trim surfaces. See Cleaning Leather Seats (page 313).
