Maintenance and care Cleaning the instrument cluster lens Clean with a damp cloth, then dry with a dry cloth. Do not use household or glass cleaners as these may damage the lens. Cleaning the interior fabric Remove dust and loose dirt with a whisk broom or a vacuum cleaner. Remove fresh spots immediately. Do not use household or glass cleaners. These agents can stain and discolor the fabric. Use a mild soap and water solution if necessary. Cleaning and maintaining the safety belts Clean the safety belts with a mild soap solution recommended for cleaning upholstery or carpets. Do not bleach or dye the belts, because these actions may weaken the belt webbing. Check the safety belt system periodically to make sure there are no nicks, tears or cuts. If your vehicle has been involved in an accident, refer to the Safety belt maintenance section in the Seating and safety restraints chapter. Cleaning leather seats (if equipped) To clean, simply use a soft cloth dampened with water and a mild soap. Wipe the leather again with a damp cloth to remove soap residue. Dry with a soft cloth. For tougher soiling concerns, Ford recommends using the Deluxe Leather Care Kit F8AZ-19G253-AA, which is available from your Ford Dealer. This mild cleaner and special pad, cleans the leather and maintains its natural beauty. Follow the instructions on the cleaner label. Regular cleaning of your leather upholstery helps maintain its resiliency and color. Do not use household cleaning products, alcohol solutions, solvents or cleaners intended for rubber, vinyl or plastics. Cleaning leather seats for the King Ranch only (if equipped) Due to the supple nature of the leather in the King Ranch F-150, please refer to the King Ranch F-150 Leather Care brochure for cleaning and care instructions. You can also use a premium leather care product to moisturize the leather and a damp cloth to clean. Do not use household cleaning products, alcohol solutions, solvents or cleaners intended for rubber, vinyl or plastics. 259
