Body Paintwork Preservation
Frequently remove particles such as bird
droppings, tree sap, insect deposits, tar
spots, road salt and industrial fallout to
avoid paint surface damage.
Frequently wash the underbody of your
vehicle if salt is applied on the road.
We recommend that you wax the
paintwork once or twice a year.
Note:
Do not apply polish in strong sunlight
as this dries the polish too quickly.
Note: Do not allow polish to come in
contact with unpainted plastic surfaces as
it can be difficult to remove.
Note: Do not apply polish to the windshield
or rear window. A contaminated windshield
or contaminated wiper blades may lead to
increased wiper noise, reduced wipe quality
or reduced rain sensor performance.
Sliding Door Tracks WARNING: Do not open or close
the sliding doors when your hands are
near the tracks or rollers.
To clean the sliding door tracks, wipe the
surface using a clean, cotton cloth with a
mild soap and water solution.
Do not use a commercial or high-pressure
washer.
WAXING
Regular waxing is necessary to protect your
car's paint from the elements. We
recommend that you wash and wax the
painted surface once or twice a year.
When washing and waxing, park your
vehicle in a shaded area out of direct
sunlight. Always wash your vehicle before
applying wax. •
Use a quality wax that does not contain
abrasives.
• Follow the manufacturer ’s instructions
to apply and remove the wax.
• Apply a small amount of wax in a
back-and-forth motion, not in circles.
• Do not allow wax to come in contact
with any non-body (low-gloss black)
colored trim. The wax will discolor or
stain the parts over time.
•Roof racks.
• Bumpers.
• Grained door handles.
• Side moldings.
• Mirror housings.
• Windshield cowl area.
• Do not apply wax to glass areas.
• After waxing, your car's paint should
feel smooth, and be free of streaks and
smudges.
CLEANING THE ENGINE
Engines are more efficient when they are
clean because grease and dirt buildup keep
the engine warmer than normal.
When washing:
• Take care when using a power washer
to clean the engine. The high-pressure
fluid could penetrate the sealed parts
and cause damage.
• Do not spray a hot engine with cold
water to avoid cracking the engine
block or other engine components.
• Spray Motorcraft Engine Shampoo and
Degreaser on all parts that require
cleaning and pressure rinse clean. In
Canada, use Motorcraft Engine
Shampoo.
