Occasionally remove loose dust from the interior
trim, plastic parts and seats using a vacuum cleaner
or soft bristled brush. Wipe the vinyl and leather sur-
faces with a clean, soft cloth dampened in mild soap
solution, then wipe clean with a dry, soft cloth.
Regular care and cleaning is required in order to
maintain the appearance of the leather.
Before using any fabric protector, read the manu-
facturer’s recommendations. Some fabric protec-
tors contain chemicals that may stain or bleach the
seat material.
Use a soft cloth dampened only with water to clean
the meter and gauge lens covers.
CAUTION
Never use benzine, thinner or any similar ma-
terial.
Small dirt particles can be abrasive and dam-
aging to leather surfaces and should be re-
moved promptly. Do not use saddle soap, car
waxes, polishes, oils cleaning fluids, solvents,
detergents or ammonia based cleaners as
they may damage the leather’s natural finish.
Never use fabric protectors unless recom-
mended by the manufacturer.
Do not use glass or plastic cleaner on meter
or gauge lens covers. It may damage the lens
covers.
MONITOR DISPLAY’S MAINTENANCE
(where fitted)
To clean the display screen, first turn the ignition
off and wipe it with a dry soft cloth.
Never use a rough cloth, alcohol, benzine, thin-
ner, any kind of solvent, or paper tissues with
chemical cleaning agent. They would scratch or
deteriorate the panel.
Do not splash any liquid such as water or car fra-
grance on the display. Contact with liquid will
cause the system to malfunction and damage
the hardware.
In case of extreme stain, use a small amount of
neutral detergent with a soft cloth. Never soak
the screen display with water detergent.
AIR FRESHENERS
Most air fresheners use a solvent that could affect
the vehicle interior. If you use an air freshener, take
the following precautions:
Hanging-type air fresheners can cause perma-
nent discoloration when they contact vehicle in-
terior surfaces. Place the air freshener in a loca-
tion that allows it to hang free and not contact an
interior surface.
Liquid-type air fresheners typically clip on the
vents. These products can cause immediate
damage and discoloration when spilled on inte-
rior surfaces.
Carefully read and follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions before using air fresheners.
FLOOR MATS
The use of NISSAN floor mats can extend the life of
your vehicle carpet and make it easier to clean the
interior. Regardless of what mats are used, be sure
they are fitted for your vehicle and are properly posi-
tioned in the foot well to prevent interference with
pedal operation. Mats should be maintained with
regular cleaning and replaced if they become exces-
sively worn.

tioned.
