²Rear seats (SuperCrew only)
If the tether strap is clipped
incorrectly, the child safety
seat may not be retained properly
in the event of a collision.
5. Refer to theInstalling child
safety seats in combination lap
and shoulder belt seating
positionssection of this chapter for
further instructions to secure the
child safety seat.
6. Tighten the child safety seat
tether strap according to the
manufacturer's instructions.
If the safety seat is not anchored properly, the risk of a child
being injured in a collision greatly increases.
Tether strap attachment rear SuperCab only
There are three loops of webbing just above the back of the rear seat
(along the bottom edge of the rear window) in the SuperCab. These
loops are to be used as both routing loops and anchor loops for child
safety seat tether straps. For example, the center loop can be used as a
routing loop for a child safety seat in the center rear seat and as an
anchoring loop for child seats installed in the outboard rear seats.

CLEANING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
Clean the instrument panel with a damp cloth, then dry with a dry cloth.
Avoid cleaners or polish that increase the gloss of the upper portion of
the instrument panel. The dull finish in this area helps protect the driver
from undesirable windshield reflection.
Do not use chemical solvents or strong detergents when cleaning
the steering wheel or instrument panel to avoid contamination of
the air bag system.
CLEANING THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LENS
Wipe the cluster area with a soft, damp cotton towel. Dry the area with a
clean, dry towel.
CLEANING WOOD-TONE TRIM
Wipe stains with a clean, soft cloth and Ultra Clear Spray Glass Cleaner
(E4AZ-19C507±AA). Dry the area by wiping with a dry, soft, clean cloth.
CLEANING THE INTERIOR FABRIC, CARPETS AND CLOTH SEATS
Remove dust and loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner. Remove light stains
and soil with Extra Strength Upholstery Cleaner (E8AZ-19523±AA).
Never saturate the seat covers with cleaning solution.
Do not use household cleaning products or glass cleaners, which
can stain and discolor the fabric and affect the flame retardent
abilities of the seat materials.
If grease or tar is present on the material, spot-clean the area first with
Spot and Stain Remover (F3AZ-19521±WA). Follow up by recleaning the
area with Extra Strength Upholstery Cleaner (E8AZ-19523±AA).
CLEANING LEATHER SEATS (IF EQUIPPED, EXCEPT FOR THE
KING RANCH SUPERCREW)
All Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles with leather seating surfaces have
a clear, protective coating over the leather.
The King Ranch F-150 SuperCrew leather seats do not have this
same clear, protective coating and special care is required to
maintain the leather's quality. Please refer toCleaning leather seats
for the King Ranch F-150 SuperCrew only (if equipped)located in this
section for details and instructions.
Cleaning
248
To clean the leather seats, simply use a soft cloth with Deluxe Leather
and Vinyl Cleaner (F2AZ-19521±WA). Dry the area with a soft cloth.
It is recommended that you use the Deluxe Leather Care Kit
(F8AZ-19G253±AA), available from your authorized Ford, Lincoln or
Mercury dealer. The mild cleaner and special pad available in the kit
cleans the leather and maintains its natural beauty. For best results,
follow the instructions printed on the cleaner label. Regular cleaning of
your leather upholstery helps maintain its resiliency and color.
Do not use household cleaning products, alcohol solutions,
solvents or cleaners intended for rubber, vinyl and plastics, or
oil/petroleum-based leather conditioners. These products may
cause premature wearing of the clear, protective coating.
CLEANING LEATHER SEATS FOR THE KING RANCH F-150
SUPERCREW ONLY (IF EQUIPPED)
Your King Ranch F-150 SuperCrew is equipped with seating covered in
premium, top-grain leather which is extremely durable, but still requires
special care and maintenance in order to ensure longevity and comfort.
As with all premium leather products such as saddles, color variations
and scratches will develop in the course of normal wear and will add
character and distinctiveness to the leather over time.
Regular cleaning and conditioning will maintain the appearance of the
leather. Failure to care for the leather can result in drying out and fading
of the material.
CLEANING
Surface dirt and dust can be abrasive and may scratch the leather if not
regularly cleaned. In order to remove dirt and dust from the leather
surface, use a vacuum cleaner. If dirt remains, use a clean, damp cloth or
soft brush.
For spills: first use a dry cloth in order to absorb as much of the liquid
as possible. Wipe the area clean with a damp cloth. Allow the area to dry,
then apply King Ranch F-150 Leather Conditioner as directed in the
Conditioningsection.To reduce the likelihood of staining, clean
spills as quickly as possible.
For stains: use Deluxe Leather and Vinyl Cleaner (F2AZ-19521±AA) and
a dry, soft cloth. The Deluxe Leather and Vinyl Cleaner Kit
(F8AZ-19G253±AA) is also available, and includes a sponge that will not
damage the leather surface.Be sure to first test any stain remover
Cleaning
249
on an inconspicuous part of the leather as cleaners may darken
the leather. Certain stains, such as coffee, ketchup, mustard,
orange juice and oil-based products are especially difficult to
remove, even after treatment with cleaners and conditioners. If
your leather stains, it will stay in the leather for life.
Do not use household cleaning products, alcohol solutions,
solvents or cleaners intended for rubber, vinyl or plastics.
CONDITIONING
Conditioning is a vital step in maintaining the leather interior over time.
Condition the leather twice yearly in order to replenish lost oils and
revitalize the aroma, suppleness and resilience.
Apply your first conditioning treatment within six months of taking
delivery of your King Ranch F-150 SuperCrew. Conditioning every six
months thereafter will lessen the effects of drying out and fading.
In order to condition the leather seats, first clean the surfaces using the
steps outlined in theCleaningsection. After you have allowed the leather
to dry completely and return to its original color, shake the bottle of King
Ranch F-150 Leather Conditioner thoroughly and apply a nickel-sized
amount to a clean, dry cloth. Rub the conditioner into leather until it
disappears. Allow the conditioner to dry and repeat the process for the
entire interior. If a film appears, wipe off film with a dry, clean cloth.
SCRATCHES
In order to lessen the appearance of certain scratches and other wear
marks, apply King Ranch F-150 Leather Conditioner on the affected area
following the same instructions as in theConditioningsection.
Additional bottles of King Ranch F-150 Leather Conditioner are available
at the King Ranch Saddle Shop. Visit the Web site at
www.krsaddleshop.com, or telephone (in the United States)
1±800±282±KING (5464). If you are unable to obtain King Ranch F-150
Leather Conditioner, use another premium leather conditioner.
CLEANING THE INSIDE WINDOWS
Use Ultra Clear Spray Glass Cleaner (E4AZ-19C507±AA) for the inside
windows if they become fogged.
To clean, use two lint-free, soft towels, folded into a pad-shape. Mist the
glass completely with cleaner, and use one of the towels to evenly agitate
the surface. Use the other towel to remove the residue.
