TIPThe tailgate can be removed to make it easier
to clean the cargo bed. To separate the tail-
gate from the cargo bed, unhook the latches,
lift the left side of the tailgate and pull the tail-
gate to the left.4. Once the majority of the dirt has been hosed off, wash all surfaces with warm
water and mild, detergent-type soap. An
old toothbrush or bottle brush is handy for
hard-to-get-at places.
5. Rinse the vehicle off immediately with clean water and dry all surfaces with a
clean chamois towel or soft, absorbent
cloth.
6. Clean the seats with a vinyl upholstery cleaner to keep the covers pliable and
glossy. 7. Automotive-type wax may be applied to
all painted and chrome-plated surfaces.
Avoid combination cleaner-waxes. Many
contain abrasives which may scratch the
paint or protective finish. When finished,
start the engine and let it idle for several
minutes.1XP7C_EE.book Page 2 Monday, June 9, 2014 5:17 PM
