Cleaning the Inside of Your Vehicle

Use a vacuum cleaner often to get rid of dust and
loose dirt. Wipe vinyl, leather, plastic and painted
surfaces with a clean, damp cloth.
Cleaning Fabric/Carpet
Your dealer has cleaners for the cleaning of fabric and
carpet. They will clean normal spots and stains very
well. You can get GM approved cleaning products from
your dealer. See Vehicle Care/Appearance Materials
on page 5-79.
Here are some cleaning tips:
•
Always read the instructions on the cleaner label.
•
Clean up stains as soon as you can — before
they set.
•
Carefully scrape off any excess stain.
•
Use a clean cloth or sponge, and change to a clean
area often. A soft brush may be used if stains are
stubborn.
•
If a ring forms on fabric after spot cleaning, clean
the entire area immediately or it will set.
