Cleaning the Interior
WARNING:
Do not use cleaning solvents, bleach or dye on the vehicle's seatbelts, as these actions may weaken the belt webbing.
WARNING:
On vehicles equipped with seat-mounted airbags, do not use chemical solvents or strong detergents. Such products could contaminate the side airbag system and affect performance of the side airbag in a crash. |
Note:
Follow the same procedure for cleaning leather seats when cleaning leather interior. See
Cleaning Leather Seats.
Note:
Do not use household cleaning products or glass cleaners, which can stain and discolor the fabric and affect the flame retardant abilities of the seat materials.
For fabric, carpets, cloth seats, safety belts and seats equipped with side airbags:- Remove dust and loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner.
- Remove light stains and soil with Motorcraft® Professional Strength Carpet & Upholstery Cleaner.
- Spot clean the area with Motorcraft® Spot and Stain Remover. In Canada, use Motorcraft® Multi-Purpose Cleaner.
- If a ring forms on the fabric after spot cleaning, clean the entire area immediately, but do not oversaturate or the ring will set.
Cleaning Black Label or Presidential Interior (If Equipped)
Note:
Alcantara microfiber cloth fabric is made of polyester microfiber with micro-porous polyurethane. Using commercially available fabric cleaners can cause permanent damage.
Note:
Do not use commercially available leather and vinyl cleaning products on Alcantara microfiber cloth fabric.
Note:
Lincoln Black Label or Presidential vehicles may have Alcantara microfiber cloth fabric on the seats, headliner, floor mats and door panels.
Depending on the type of stain, use water, lemon juice or pure ethyl alcohol when cleaning. For cleaning Alcantara microfiber cloth, refer to the following chart:
| Type of Stain | Cleaning Procedure |
|---|---|
| Fruit juice, jam, jelly, syrup or ketchup. | Use lukewarm water and rinse by dabbing with clean water. |
| Blood, egg, excrement or urine. | Use cold water and rinse by dabbing with clean water. Avoid warm water because it makes these substances coagulate. |
| Liquor, alcoholic beverages, wine, beer, cola and tea. | Use lukewarm water. If the color remains, treat with lemon juice and then rinse. |
| Indelible pencil, cocoa, chocolate, pastry with cream or chocolate, ice cream or mustard. | Use lukewarm water and rinse by dabbing with clean water. |
