Lincoln Aviator: Vehicle Care / Cleaning Leather Seats
Note: Follow the same procedure as
cleaning leather seats for cleaning leather
instrument panels and leather interior trim
surfaces.
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.
WARNING: Do not use chemical
solvents or strong detergents when
cleaning the steering wheel or instrument
panel to avoid contamination of the airbag
system...
Authorized dealers have touch-up paint to
