Roadside emergencies
155

The windshield, rear window and wiper blades should be cleaned
regularly. Wiper blades can be cleaned with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol
or windshield washer solution. Be sure to replace wiper blades when
they appear worn or do not function properly.
Cleaning the instrument panel
Clean the instrument panel with a damp cloth, then dry with a dry cloth.
Avoid cleaners or polish that increase the gloss of the upper portion of
the instrument panel. The dull finish in this area helps protect the driver
from undesirable windshield reflection.
Do not use chemical solvents or strong detergents when cleaning
the steering wheel or instrument panel to avoid contamination of
the air bag system.
Cleaning the instrument cluster lens
Wipe the cluster area with a soft, damp cotton towel and Ultra Clear
Spray Glass Cleaner (E4AZ-19C507±AA). Dry the area with a clean, dry
towel.
Cleaning the inside windows
Use Ultra Clear Spray Glass Cleaner (E4AZ-19C507±AA) for the inside
windows if they become fogged.
To clean, use two lint-free, soft towels, folded into a pad-shape. Mist the
glass completely with cleaner, and use one of the towels to evenly agitate
the surface. Use the other towel to remove the residue.
Cleaning wood-tone trim
Wipe stains with a clean, soft cloth and Ultra Clear Spray Glass Cleaner
(E4AZ-19C507±AA). Dry the area by wiping with a dry, soft, clean cloth.
Cleaning the interior fabric, carpets and cloth seats
Remove dust and loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner. Remove light stains
and soil with Triple Clean (EOAZ-19526±AA).
Never saturate the seat covers with cleaning solution.
Do not use household cleaning products or glass cleaners, which
can stain and discolor the fabric and affect the flame retardent
abilities of the seat materials.
Maintenance and care
216

If grease or tar is present on the material, spot-clean the area first with
Extra Strength Tar and Road Oil Removal (B7A-19520±AA). Follow up
by recleaning the area with Triple Clean (EOAZ-19526±AA).
Cleaning leather seats (if equipped)
All Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles with leather seating surfaces have
a clear, protective coating over the leather.
To clean the leather seats, simply use a soft, cloth dampened with a
solution of water and Triple Clean (EOAZ-19526±AA). Wipe the leather
again with a damp cloth in order to remove any cleaning solution
residue. Dry the area with a soft cloth.
It is recommended that you use the Deluxe Leather Care Kit
(F8AZ-19G253±AA), available from your authorized Ford, Lincoln or
Mercury dealer. The mild cleaner and special pad available in the kit
cleans the leather and maintains its natural beauty. For best results,
follow the instructions printed on the cleaner label. Regular cleaning of
your leather upholstery helps maintain its resiliency and color.
Do not use household cleaning products, alcohol solutions,
solvents or cleaners intended for rubber, vinyl and plastics, or
oil/petroleum-based leather conditioners. These products may
cause premature wearing of the clear, protective coating. Use
only Triple Clean (EOAZ-19526±AA).
Cleaning and maintaining the safety belts
Clean the safety belts with Triple Clean (E4AZ-19C507±AA), available
from your authorized Ford, Lincoln or Mercury dealer.
Do not use bleach, dye or any other solvent to clean the belts, as
these actions may weaken the belt webbing.
