Cleaning products can be hazardous. Some are toxic. Other cleaning products can burst into flames if a match is struck near them or if they get on a hot part of the vehicle. Some are dangerous if their fumes are inhaled in an enclosed space. When anything from a container is used to clean the vehicle, be sure to follow the manufacturer's warnings and instructions. Always open the doors or windows of the vehicle when cleaning the inside.

Never use these to clean the vehicle:

    • Benzene
    • Naphtha
    • Carbon Tetrachloride
    • Acetone
    • Paint Thinner
    • Turpentine
    • Lacquer Thinner
    • Nail Polish Remover

They can all be hazardous -- some more than others -- and they can all damage the vehicle, too.

Do not use any of these products unless this manual says you can. In many uses, these will damage the vehicle:

    • Alcohol
    • Laundry Soap
    • Bleach
    • Reducing Agents
