Interior Care; Dec 2/96 - Cessna 172R Pilot Operating Handbook

'
INTERIOR CARE
To remove dust and loose dirt from the upholstery and
carpet,
clean the interior regularly with a vacuum cleaner.
Blot up any spilled liquid promptly with cleansing tissue
or rags.
Don't pat the spot; press the blotting material firmly and hold it for
several seconds. Continue blotting until no more liquid is taken up.
Scrape off sticky materials with a dull knife, then spot clean the
area.
Oily spots may be cleaned with household spot removers, used
sparingly. Before using any solvent, read the instructions on the
container and test
it on an obscure place on the fabric to be
cleaned. Never saturate the fabric with a volatile solvent; it may
damage the padding and backing materials.
Soiled upholstery and carpet may be cleaned with foam
type
detergent, used according to the manufacturer's instructions.
To
minimize wetting the fabric, keep the foam as dry as possible and
remove it with a vacuum cleaner.
For complete information related to interior cleaning, refer to
Chapter 12 of the Model 172R Maintenance Manual.
