The bright metal moldings on the
vehicle are aluminum. To prevent
damage always follow these
cleaning instructions:
Be sure the molding is cool to
the touch before applying any
cleaning solution.

approved for aluminum. Some
cleaners are highly acidic or
contain alkaline substances and
can damage the moldings.
Always dilute a concentrated
cleaner according to the
manufacturer s instructions.
Do not use chrome cleaners.
Do not use cleaners that are not
intended for automotive use.
Use a nonabrasive wax on the
vehicle after washing to protect
and extend the molding finish.
Spray-In Bedliner Care
A spray-in bedliner is a permanent
coating that bonds to the truck bed
and cannot be removed. Promptly
rinse the bedliner surface following
a chemical spill to avoid permanent
damage.
Spray-in bedliners can fade from
oxidation, road dirt, heavy-duty
hauling, and hard water stains.
Clean it periodically by washing off
the loose dirt and using a mild
detergent. To restore the original
appearance, apply the bedliner
conditioner available through your
dealer.
Caution
Using silicone-based products
may damage the bedliner, reduce
the slip-resistant texture, and
attract dirt.
