Do not clean your vehicle using the following
cleaners or techniques:

Never use a knife or any other sharp object to
remove a soil from any interior surface.

Never use a stiff brush. It can cause damage
to your vehicle’s interior surfaces.

Never apply heavy pressure or rub
aggressively with a cleaning cloth. Use of
heavy pressure can damage your interior
and does not improve the effectiveness of
soil removal.

Use only mild, neutral-pH soaps. Avoid
laundry detergents or dishwashing soaps with
degreasers. Using too much soap will leave a
residue that leaves streaks and attracts dirt.
For liquid cleaners, about 20 drops per gallon
(3.78 L) of water is a good guide.

Do not heavily saturate your upholstery while
cleaning.

Damage to your vehicle’s interior may result
from the use of many organic solvents such as
naptha, alcohol, etc.

Fabric/Carpet

Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush
attachment frequently to remove dust and loose
dirt. A canister vacuum with a beater bar in
the nozzle may only be used on floor carpet and
carpeted floor mats. For soils, always try to remove
them first with plain water or club soda. Before
cleaning, gently remove as much of the soil
as possible using one of the following techniques:

For liquids: gently blot the remaining soil
with a paper towel. Allow the soil to absorb
into the paper towel until no more can
be removed.

For solid dry soils: remove as much as
possible and then vacuum.

To clean, use the following instructions:

1. Saturate a lint-free, clean white cloth with

water or club soda.

2. Wring the cloth to remove excess moisture.

3. Start on the outside edge of the soil and gently

rub toward the center. Continue cleaning,
using a clean area of the cloth each time it
becomes soiled.
