CLEANING AND CARING FOR
YOUR VEHICLE
Washing your vehicle
Wash your vehicle regularly with
cold or lukewarm water. Never use
strong detergents or soap. If your
vehicle is particularly dirty, use a
quality car wash detergent. Always
use a clean sponge and plenty of
water for best results. We
recommend that you have the
underbody of your vehicle washed
at the end of the winter to remove
deposits left by snow, salt and
water.
Remove any aftermarket
accessories, such as antennas,
before entering a car wash.
After washing your vehicle, apply
the brakes several times to dry
them.
Wax the paintwork of your vehicle
once or twice a year. This will help
retain the glossy finish and water
droplets will run off more easily.
Repairing paint chips
Minor scratches or paint damage
from road debris may be
camouflaged with touch-up paint,
paint repair foil, or aerosol paint
spray from the Ford Accessory
line. Observe the application
instructions on the products. In
