For routine cleaning, wipe the surface with
a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap and
water solution. Dry the area with a clean,
soft cloth.
For cleaning and removing stains such as
dye transfer, use Motorcraft Premium
Leather and Vinyl Cleaner or a
commercially available leather cleaning
product for automotive interiors.
Note: Test any cleaner or stain remover on
an inconspicuous area.
You should:
Remove dust and loose dirt with a
vacuum cleaner.
Clean and treat spills and stains as
soon as possible.
Do not use the following products as these
may damage the leather:
Oil and petroleum or silicone-based
leather conditioners.
Household cleaners.
Alcohol solutions.
Solvents or cleaners intended
specifically for rubber, vinyl and
plastics.
REPAIRING MINOR PAINT
DAMAGE
See your authorized dealer to obtain
touch-up paint for the exterior color of your
vehicle. The color code is included on the
Safety Compliance Certification label on
the driver's door-latch post. Follow the
instructions on the paint bottle.
CLEANING THE WHEELS
This information applies to alloy and
carbon fiber wheels.
Note: Do not apply a cleaning chemical to
warm or hot wheels.
Note: Do not drive your vehicle through an
automated, commercial car wash.
Automated car washes can damage your
vehicle.
Note: Do not use industrial-strength or
heavy-duty cleaners in combination with
brush agitation to remove brake dust and
dirt.
Note: Do not use hydrofluoric acid-based
or high caustic-based wheel cleaners, steel
wool, fuels or strong household detergents.
Note: Do not spray wheel cleaning products
on any part of the braking system. Use a
mild soap and water solution only.
Alloy and carbon fiber wheels are coated
with a paint finish. To maintain their
condition we recommend that you:
Clean the wheels weekly using
Motorcraft Wheel and Tire Cleaner or
a gentle soap solution. Apply to the
wheel only using manufacturer's
instructions.
Use a soft sponge to remove deposits
of dirt and brake dust accumulation.
Rinse thoroughly with a strong stream
of water when you have completed the
cleaning process.
To remove tar and grease, use
Motorcraft Bug and Tar Remover.
VEHICLE STORAGE
At Ford, we fully understand that many
Ford Performance vehicles will see only
occasional operation and that many of the
vehicles, especially in northern climates,
may be stored for an extended period
during the winter months. If you plan on
storing your vehicle for 30 days or more,
read the following maintenance
recommendations to make sure your
vehicle stays in good operating condition.
