Page 260 of 470

•Wash your vehicle first, using cool orlukewarm water and a neutral pHshampoo, such as Motorcraft DetailWash.
•Use Motorcraft Custom Bright MetalCleaner. Apply the product as youwould a wax to clean bumpers andother chrome parts; allow the cleanerto dry for a few minutes, then wipe offthe haze with a clean, dry rag.
•Do not apply cleaning product to hotsurfaces and do not leave cleaningproduct on chrome surfaces longerthan the time recommended.
•Using other non-recommendedcleaners can result in severe andpermanent cosmetic damage.
Underbody
Flush the complete underside of yourvehicle frequently. Keep body and doordrain holes free from packed dirt.
Cleaning Plastic Exterior Parts
Use only approved products to cleanplastic parts
•For routine cleaning, use MotorcraftDetail Wash.
•If tar or grease spots are present, useMotorcraft Bug and Tar Remover.
WAXING
Regular waxing is necessary to protect yourcar's paint from the elements. Werecommend that you wash and wax thepainted surface once or twice a year.
When washing and waxing, park yourvehicle in a shaded area out of directsunlight. Always wash your vehicle beforeapplying wax.
•Use a quality wax that does not containabrasives.
•Follow the manufacturer’s instructionsto apply and remove the wax.
•Apply a small amount of wax in aback-and-forth motion, not in circles.
•Do not allow wax to come in contactwith any non-body (low-gloss black)colored trim. The wax will discolor orstain the parts over time.
•Roof racks.
•Bumpers.
•Grained door handles.
•Side moldings.
•Mirror housings.
•Windshield cowl area.
•Do not apply wax to glass areas.
•After waxing, your car's paint shouldfeel smooth, and be free of streaks andsmudges.
CLEANING THE ENGINE
Engines are more efficient when they areclean because grease and dirt buildup keepthe engine warmer than normal.
When washing:
•Take care when using a power washerto clean the engine. The high-pressurefluid could penetrate the sealed partsand cause damage.
•Do not spray a hot engine with coldwater to avoid cracking the engineblock or other engine components.
•Spray Motorcraft Engine Shampoo andDegreaser on all parts that requirecleaning and pressure rinse clean. InCanada, use Motorcraft EngineShampoo.
•Never wash or rinse the engine while itis hot or running; water in the runningengine may cause internal damage.
