Air fresheners
Most air fresheners use a solvent that could
affect the vehicle interior. If you use an air
freshener, take the following precautions:
- Hanging-type air fresheners can cause
permanent discoloration when they contact
vehicle interior surfaces. Place the air
freshener in a location that allows it to hang
free and not contact an interior surface.
- Liquid-type air fresheners typically clip on the vents. These products can cause immediate damage and discoloration when spilled on interior surfaces.
Carefully read and follow the manufacturer’s instructions before using air fresheners.
