tact the dashboard, wipe them off imme-
diately. See the instructions that follow for
the proper way to clean vinyl.✽ ✽NOTICENever allow water or other liquids to
come in contact with electrical/electron-
ic components inside the vehicle as this
may damage them.

rior trim Vinyl

mended for upholstery or carpets.
Remove fresh spots immediately with a
fabric spot cleaner. If fresh spots do not
receive immediate attention, the fabric
can be stained and its color can be
affected. Also, its fire-resistant properties
can be reduced if the material is not
properly maintained.✽ ✽NOTICEUsing anything but recommended
cleaners and procedures may affect the
fabric’s appearance and fire-resistant
properties.
Cleaning the lap/shoulder belt
webbing Clean the belt webbing with any mild
soap solution recommended for cleaning
upholstery or carpet. Follow the instruc-
tions provided with the soap. Do not
bleach or re-dye the webbing because
this may weaken it.Cleaning the interior window

cle become fogged (that is, covered with
an oily, greasy or waxy film), they should
be cleaned with glass cleaner. Follow the
directions on the glass cleaner container.✽ ✽NOTICEDo not scrape or scratch the inside of
the rear window. This may result in
damage to the rear window defroster
grid.
