400 VEHICLE CARE
Hand Wash
Rinse the vehicle well, before and after
washing, to remove all cleaning agents
completely. If they are allowed to dry
on the surface, they could stain.
Dry the finish with a soft, clean
chamois or an all-cotton towel to
avoid surface scratches and water
spotting.
Cleaning Underhood Components
Caution
Do not power wash any component
under the hood that has this
e
symbol.
This could cause damage to the
vehicle that would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty.
Avoid using solvents or abrasive
cleaners that may harm underhood
components. GM recommends using
only water to clean underhood
components.
If using a pressure washer, ensure the
following criteria is met:
.Water pressure must be kept below
14 000 KPa (2,000 PSI).
.Water temperature must be below
80 °C (180 °F).
.A spray nozzle with a 40 degree
wide angle spray pattern or wider
must be used, and must be kept at
least 30 cm (1 ft) away from all
surfaces.
Finish Care
Application of aftermarket clearcoat
sealant/wax materials is not
recommended. If painted surfaces are
damaged, see your dealer to have the
damage assessed and repaired.
Materials such as calcium chloride
and other salts, ice melting agents,
road oil and tar, tree sap, bird
droppings, chemicals from industrial
chimneys, etc., can damage the vehicle
finish if they remain on painted
surfaces. Wash the vehicle as soon as
possible. If necessary, use
non-abrasive cleaners that are marked
safe for painted surfaces to remove
foreign matter. Occasional hand waxing or mild
polishing should be done to remove
residue from the paint finish. See your
dealer for approved cleaning products.
Caution
Do not apply waxes or polishes to
uncoated plastic, vinyl, rubber,
decals, simulated wood, or matte
paint as damage can occur.
Caution
Machine compounding or
aggressive polishing on a basecoat/
clearcoat paint finish may damage
it. Use only non-abrasive waxes and
polishes that are made for a
basecoat/clearcoat paint finish on
the vehicle.
To keep the paint finish looking new,
keep the vehicle garaged or covered
whenever possible.

Interior Care
To prevent dirt particle abrasions,
regularly clean the vehicle's interior.
Before using cleaners, read and follow
all safety instructions on the label.
While cleaning the interior, open the
doors and windows to get proper
ventilation. Newspapers or dark
garments can transfer color to the
vehicle’s interior.
Caution
Immediately remove cleaners, hand
lotions, sunscreen, and insect
repellent from all interior surfaces
or permanent damage may result.
Caution
Use cleaners specifically designed
for the surfaces being cleaned to
prevent permanent damage to the
vehicle. Apply all cleaners directly
to a cleaning cloth. Do not spray
cleaners on any switches or
controls.When using liquid soap cleaners,
follow the directions on the specific
cleaner or soap solution for dilution
instructions.
Caution
To prevent damage:
.Never use a razor or any other
sharp object to remove soil from
any interior surface
.Never use a brush with stiff
bristles.
.Never rub any surface
aggressively or with too much
pressure.
.Do not get any exposed electrical
components wet.
.Do not use laundry detergents or
dishwashing soaps with
degreasers. Do not use solutions
that contain strong or
caustic soap.
.Do not heavily saturate the
upholstery when cleaning.
.Do not use solvents or cleaners
containing solvents.
(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
.Do not use disinfecting wipes
that are scented or contain
bleach. Do not use wipes or
cleaners that show a color
transfer to the wipe or change
the appearance of the interior
surface when used.
.Do not use scented or gel-type
hand sanitizers. If hand sanitizer
comes in contact with interior
surfaces of the vehicle, blot
immediately and clean with a
soft cloth dampened with a mild
soap and water solution.
Interior Glass
To clean, use a microfiber cloth fabric
dampened with water. Wipe droplets
left behind with a clean dry cloth.

VEHICLE CARE 405
Caution
To prevent scratching, never use
abrasive cleaners on automotive
glass. Abrasive cleaners or
aggressive cleaning may damage
the rear window defogger.
Cleaning the windshield with water
during the first three to six months of
ownership will reduce tendency to fog.
Speaker Covers
Vacuum around a speaker cover
gently, so that the speaker will not be
damaged. Clean spots with water and
mild soap.
Coated Moldings
Coated moldings should be cleaned.
.When lightly soiled, wipe with a
sponge or soft, lint-free cloth
dampened with water.
.When heavily soiled, use warm
soapy water.
Vinyl/Rubber
If equipped with vinyl floor and
rubber floor mats, use a soft cloth
and/or brush dampened with water to
remove dust and loose dirt. For more
thorough cleaning, use a mild soap
and water solution.
{Warning
Do not use cleaners that contain
silicone, wax-based products,
or cleaners that increase gloss on
vinyl/rubber floor and mats. These
cleaners can permanently change
the appearance and feel of the
vinyl/rubber and can make the floor
slippery. Your foot could slip while
operating the vehicle, and you
could lose control, resulting in a
crash. You or others could be
injured.
Fabric/Carpet/Suede
Start by vacuuming the surface using
a soft brush attachment. If a rotating
vacuum brush attachment is being used, only use it on the floor carpet.
Before cleaning, gently remove as
much of the soil as possible:
.Gently blot liquids with a paper
towel. Continue blotting until no
more soil can be removed.
.For solid soils, remove as much as
possible prior to vacuuming.
To clean: 1. Saturate a clean, lint-free colorfast cloth with water. Microfiber cloth is
recommended to prevent lint
transfer to the fabric or carpet.
2. Remove excess moisture by gently wringing until water does not drip
from the cleaning cloth.
3. Start on the outside edge of the soil and gently rub toward the
center. Fold the cleaning cloth to a
clean area frequently to prevent
forcing the soil into the fabric.
4. Continue gently rubbing the soiled area until there is no longer any
color transfer from the soil to the
cleaning cloth.
5. If the soil is not completely removed, use a mild soap solution
followed only by plain water.

406 VEHICLE CARE
If the soil is not completely removed,
it may be necessary to use a
commercial upholstery cleaner or spot
lifter. Test a small hidden area for
colorfastness before using a
commercial upholstery cleaner or spot
lifter. If ring formation occurs, clean
the entire fabric or carpet.
After cleaning, use a paper towel to
blot excess moisture.
Cleaning High Gloss Surfaces
and Vehicle Information and
Radio Displays
Use a microfiber cloth on high gloss
surfaces or vehicle displays. First, use
a soft bristle brush to remove dirt that
can scratch the surface. Then gently
clean by rubbing with a microfiber
cloth. Never use window cleaners or
solvents. Periodically hand wash the
microfiber cloth separately, using mild
soap. Do not use bleach or fabric
softener. Rinse thoroughly and air dry
before next use.
Caution
Do not attach a device with a
suction cup to the display. This may
cause damage and would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Instrument Panel, Leather, Vinyl,
Other Plastic Surfaces, Low
Gloss Paint Surfaces, and
Natural Open Pore Wood
Surfaces
Use a soft bristle brush to remove
dust from knobs and crevices on the
instrument cluster. 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 and water solution.
Caution
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(Continued)

dry naturally. Never use heat,
steam, or spot removers. Do not use
liquids that contain alcohol or
solvents on leather seats. 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.
