Instrument Panel, Vinyl, and Other Plastic Surfaces
Use a soft microfiber cloth dampened with water to remove dust and loose dirt. For a more thorough cleaning, use a soft microfiber cloth dampened with a mild soap solution.
Notice: Soaking or saturating leather, especially perforated leather, as well
as other interior surfaces, may cause permanent damage. Wipe excess moisture from
these surfaces after cleaning and allow them to dry naturally. Never use heat, steam,
spot lifters or spot removers. Do not use cleaners that contain silicone or wax-based
products. Cleaners containing these solvents can permanently change the appearance
and feel of leather or soft trim and are not recommended.
Do not use cleaners that increase gloss, especially on the instrument panel. Reflected glare can decrease visibility through the windshield under certain conditions.
Notice: Use of air fresheners may cause permanent damage to plastics and painted
surfaces. If an air freshener comes in contact with any plastic or painted surface
in the vehicle, blot immediately and clean with a soft cloth dampened with a mild
soap solution. Damage caused by air fresheners would not be covered by the vehicle
warranty.
