266 Vehicle Care
Air fresheners (liquid, solid, gel,
or plate types) must not come into
direct contact with, or spill onto,
interior components such as the air
conditioning or audio system.
Compounds contained in these
products can cause discoloration,
staining, or peeling of paint.
Glass cleaners that contain these
compounds must not be used to
clean the inside of the windshield or
window glass. To clean the glass,
wipe it using a cloth wet with warm
or cold water.
To avoid possible permanent
discoloration of light colored seats,
Do not let materials with non-fast
colors come into contact with seat
trim materials until these materials
are totally dry. This includes certain
types of casual clothing, such as
colored denims, corduroys, leathers,
and suedes, as well as decorative
paper.
With the use of modern trim
materials, it is very important that
you use proper cleaning techniques
and cleaners. Failing to do this on
the first cleaning may result in water
spots, spot rings, or setting of stains
or soilage all of which are more
difficult to remove in a second
cleaning.
Dust and loose dirt that collect on
interior fabric should be removed
often with a vacuum cleaner or soft
bristle brush. Wipe vinyl or leather
trim regularly with a clean, damp
cloth. Normal trim soils, spots,
or stains can be cleaned with these
cleaners.
Remember these basic steps before
cleaning:
Remove stains as quickly as
possible before they set.
Use a clean cloth or sponge,
and change to a clean area
often. A soft brush maybe used
if stains persist.
Use solvent-type cleaners only
in a well ventilated area: also, do
not saturate the stained area.
If a ring forms after spot
cleaning, clean the entire area
immediately.
Follow specific instructions on
cleaner labels.
General Cleaning of Soiled or
Water Spotted Fabric Type
Trim with Foam Type Cleaner
Vacuum the area thoroughly to
remove any loose dirt.
Always clean a whole trim panel or
section. Mask surrounding trim
along stitch or welt lines.
Use suds on a clean sponge. Do
not brush wet suede. Do not
saturate the material or rub it
harshly. Immediately after cleaning,
remove suds with a sponge and
rinse with a clean wet sponge. Wipe
off remaining residue with a slightly
damp absorbent towel or cloth.
Immediately after wiping, force-dry
the fabric with an air hose. A heat
dryer or heat lamp may be used.
Use caution with a heat dryer or
lamp to help prevent damage.
When trim materials with a sheen or
luster finish are dry, wipe the fabric
lightly with a soft, dry, clean cloth to
restore its sheen or luster. For
