Maintenance and Care
Appearance Care
Cleaning the Window Interiors
If the windows become covered with an
oily, greasy, or waxy ¿ lm, clean them with
glass cleaner. Follow the directions on the
container.
CAUTION
 


¾ Do not scrape or scratch the inside of
the window glass. It could damage the
thermal fi laments.
 


¾ When washing the inside of the window
glass, use a soft cloth dampened in
lukewarm water, gently wiping the
thermal fi laments.
  Use of glass cleaning products could
damage the thermal fi laments.

Cleaning the Floor Mats
Rubber À oor mats should be cleaned with
mild soap and water only.
WARNING
Do not use rubber cleaners, such as tire
cleaner or tire shine, when cleaning
rubber fl oor mats:
Cleaning the rubber fl oor mats with
rubber cleaning products makes the
fl oor mats slippery.
This may cause an accident when
depressing the accelerator, brake, or
clutch (Manual transmission) pedal or
when getting in or out of the vehicle.

After removing the À oor mats for cleaning,
always reinstall them securely (page
3-52 ).
