Windshield Wipers/Washer/Defogger (cont'd)
CAUTION:
Do not use radiator antifreeze in the windshield washer; it will
damage the paint. Do not use a vinegar/water combination in the windshield
washer; it will damage the pump.
Prolonged operation of the washer without fluid may damage
the pump.
In freezing weather, warm the windshield with the defrosters
before using the washer. This will help prevent icing which could
seriously impair visibility.

Interior Trim
Remove dust and loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner.
Wipe the vinyl with a clean, damp cloth or sponge. Stains can be removed with a commercially available vinyl cleaner.

on the interior. They are toxic, flammable and hazardous and could damage the material you're cleaning.
Windows A 10 to 1 mix of water and white vinegar, or a commercially
available glass cleaner may be used to clean windows and to remove
the dust film sometimes caused by the ingredients used in interior vinyls and plastics.

damage the windshield washer pump.
Be careful not to scratch or damage the defogger wires when
cleaning the inside of the rear window; wipe the window horizontally along the wires, not up and down. Dry the windows
with a lint-free cloth or paper towel. Keep all the windows clean formaximum visibility.
Exterior Care
Waxing Wax the car when water will no longer "bead" on the paint. Always wash and dry the car before you wax it.
Use a good quality liquid or paste wax, and follow the manufacturer's
instructions. Wax all the metal trim to keep its luster.
NOTE:
Removing oil, tar, etc., with a spot remover will usually strip the
wax from the surrounding finish. Be sure to re-wax these areas even if the rest of the car does not yet need waxing.ProCarManuals.comMain Menu t s
