Vehicle Care 10-95
Instrument Panel, Vinyl, and
Other Plastic Surfaces
To remove dust, a soft cloth
dampened with water can be used.
If a more thorough cleaning is
necessary, a clean soft cloth
dampened with a mild soap solution
can be used to gently remove dust
and dirt. Never use spot lifters or
removers on plastic surfaces. Many
commercial cleaners and coatings
that are sold to preserve and protect
soft plastic surfaces may
permanently change the
appearance and feel of the interior
and are not recommended. Do not
use silicone or wax-based products,
or those containing organic solvents
to clean the vehicle's interior
because they can alter the
appearance by increasing the gloss
in a non-uniform manner.
Some commercial products may
increase gloss on the instrument
panel. The increase in gloss may
cause annoying reflections in the
windshield and even make it difficult
to see through the windshield under
certain conditions.
Care of Safety Belts
Keep belts clean and dry.

WARNING
Do not bleach or dye safety belts.
It may severely weaken them. In
a crash, they might not be able to
provide adequate protection.
Clean safety belts only with mild
soap and lukewarm water.
Floor Mats
If the floor mat has a snap retainer,
a grommet in the driver side floor
mat attaches to a hook on the floor
of the vehicle to secure the floor
mat. To remove the floor mat, pull
the mat towards the rear of the
vehicle until the grommet can be
removed from the hook.
If the floor mat has a knob retainer,
a grommet in the floor mat attaches
to a knob on the floor of the vehicle
to secure the floor mat. To remove
the floor mat, turn the knob till it is
aligned with the slot in the floor mat
grommet and pull the floor mat up.
To reinstall, center the slot in the
floor mat grommet with the knob on
the floor and set the mat in place.
Then turn the knob until it is
perpendicular to the slot in the
grommet to lock the mat in place.
