ammonia-based cleaners to clean your leather
upholstery. Application of a leather conditioner
is not required to maintain the original condition.
WARNING!
Do not use volatile solvents for cleaning
purposes. Many are potentially flammable,
and if used in closed areas they may cause
respiratory harm.
CAUTION!
Do not use Alcohol and Alcohol-based and/or
Keton based cleaning products to clean
leather seats, as damage to the seat may
result.
Cleaning Headlights
Your vehicle has plastic headlights that are
lighter and less susceptible to stone breakage
than glass headlights.
Plastic is not as scratch resistant as glass and
therefore different lens cleaning procedures
must be followed.
To minimize the possibility of scratching the
lenses and reducing light output, avoid wiping
with a dry cloth. To remove road dirt, wash with
a mild soap solution followed by rinsing.
Do not use abrasive cleaning components, sol-
vents, steel wool or other aggressive material to
clean the lenses.
Glass Surfaces
All glass surfaces should be cleaned on a
regular basis with MOPAR® Glass Cleaner, or
any commercial household-type glass cleaner.
Never use an abrasive type cleaner. Use cau-
tion when cleaning the inside rear window
equipped with electric defrosters or the right
rear quarter window equipped with the radio
antenna. Do not use scrapers or other sharp
instrument that may scratch the elements.
When cleaning the rear view mirror, spray
cleaner on the towel or rag that you are using.
Do not spray cleaner directly on the mirror.
Instrument Panel Cover
The instrument panel cover has a low glare
surface which minimizes reflections on the
windshield. Do not use protectants or other
products which may cause undesirable reflec-
tions. Use soap and warm water to restore the
low glare surface.
Instrument Panel Bezels
CAUTION!
When installing hanging air fresheners in
your vehicle, read the installation instructions
carefully. Some air fresheners will damage
the finish of painted or decorated parts if
allowed to directly contact any surface.
Cleaning Plastic Instrument Cluster Lenses
The lenses in front of the instruments in this
vehicle are molded in clear plastic. When clean-
ing the lenses, care must be taken to avoid
scratching the plastic.
1. Clean with a wet soft rag. A mild soap
solution may be used, but do not use high
alcohol content or abrasive cleaners. If soap is
used, wipe clean with a clean damp rag.
2. Dry with a soft cloth.
