Cleaning the interior
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.
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.
• If grease or tar is present on the material, spot-clean the area first with Motorcraft®
Spot and Stain Remover. In Canada, use Motorcraft® Multi-Purpose Cleaner.
• 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.
