       Cleaning High Gloss Surfaces
       and Vehicle Information and
       Radio Displays
       For vehicles with high gloss
       surfaces or vehicle displays, use a
       microfiber cloth to wipe surfaces.
       Before wiping the surface with the
       microfiber cloth, use a soft bristle
       brush to remove dirt that could
       scratch the surface. Then use the
       microfiber cloth by gently rubbing to
       clean. Never use window cleaners
       or solvents. Periodically hand wash
       the microfiber cloth separately,
       using mild soap. Do not use bleach
       or fabric softener. Rinse thoroughly
       and air dry before next use.
