Interior
For fabric, carpets, cloth seats, safety belts and seats equipped with side airbags:
• Remove dust and loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner.
• Remove light stains and soil with Motorcraft Professional Strength Carpet & Upholstery
Cleaner (ZC-54).
• If grease or tar is present on the material, spot-clean the area first with Motorcraft
Spot and Stain Remover (ZC-14). In Canada, use Motorcraft Multi-Purpose Cleaner
(CXC-101).
• If a ring forms on the fabric after spot cleaning, clean the entire area immediately
(but do not oversaturate) or the ring will set.
• Do not use household cleaning products or glass cleaners, which can stain and
discolor the fabric and affect the flame retardant abilities of the seat materials.
WARNING:
Do not use cleaning solvents, bleach or dye on the vehicle’s safety belts, as these
actions may weaken the belt webbing.
WARNING:
On vehicles equipped with seat-mounted airbags, do not use chemical solvents or
strong detergents. Such products could contaminate the side-airbag system and affect
performance of the side airbag in a collision.
