APPEARANCE CARE
NOTICE
• Do not use chemical products con-
taining the following ingredients.
Doing so may cause staining, dis-
coloration, deformation, or a deteri-
oration in strength, etc.
– Solvents such as benzine, gas-
oline, thinner, or sticker peeling
agents
– Acidic or alkaline detergents
– Bleaches or dyes
• Do not use chemical products that
include silicone for cleaning the
areas around the air conditioner,
electronic equipment such as the
audio or navigation systems or
switches. Contact with silicone
may cause them to malfunction.
• Do not leave colored leather goods,
furs, vinyl articles, etc. in your vehi-
cle for long periods. Doing so
could cause discoloration or defor-
mation of the interior.

eners instead.

Vinyl Upholstery
Prepare a solution of soap or mild deter-
gent dissolved in warm water. Apply the
solution to the vinyl with a sponge or soft
cloth and let it soak for a few minutes to
loosen dirt.
Rub the surface with a clean, damp cloth
to remove dirt and the soap solution. If
some dirt still remains on the surface,
repeat this procedure.
Fabric Upholstery
Remove loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner.
Using a mild soap solution, rub stained
areas with a clean damp cloth. To remove
soap, rub the areas again with a cloth
dampened with water. Repeat this until the
stain is removed, or use a commercial fab-
ric cleaner for tougher stains. If you use a
fabric cleaner, carefully follow the manu-
facturer's instructions and precautions.
Leather Upholstery
Remove loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner.
Using a mild soap or saddle soap solution,
wipe dirt off with a clean damp soft cloth.
To remove soap, wipe the areas again with
a soft cloth dampened with water. Wipe the
areas dry with a soft dry cloth. Repeat this
until the dirt or stain is removed, or use a
commercial leather cleaner for tougher dirt
or stains. If you use a leather cleaner,
carefully follow the manufacturer's instruc-
tions and precautions. Do not use solvent
type cleaners or abrasive cleaners.
NOTE:
• In order to keep the leather upholstery
looking good, it should be cleaned at
least twice a year.
• If the leather upholstery becomes wet,
immediately wipe it dry with a tissue
paper or a soft cloth. Water may cause
the leather to harden and shrink if it is
not wiped off.
• When parking on sunny days, select a
shady place or use a sunshade. If the
leather upholstery is exposed to the
direct sunlight for a long time, it may dis-
color and shrink.
• As is common with natural materials,
leather is inherently irregular in grain and
cowhide has spots in its natural state.
These do not affect the performance of
the leather in any way.
Seat Belts
Clean seat belts with mild soap and water.
Do not use bleach or dye on the belts.
They may weaken the fabric of the belts.
Vinyl Floor Mats
Ordinary dirt can be removed from vinyl
with water or the mild soap. Use a brush to
help loosen dirt. After the dirt is loosened,
rinse the mat thoroughly with water and
dry it in the shade.
