2009 Maxima Owner's Manual

CAUTION
● Never use benzine, thinner or any similar
material.
● Small dirt particles can be abrasive and
damaging to leather surfaces and
should be removed promptly. Do not
use saddle soap, car waxes, polishes,
oils, cleaning fluids, solvents, detergents
or ammonia-based cleaners as
they may damage the leather’s natural
finish.
● Never use fabric protectors unless recommended
by the manufacturer.
● Do not use glass or plastic cleaner on
meter or gauge lens covers. It may damage
the lens cover.
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 the air fresheners.
FLOOR MATS
The use of genuine NISSAN floor mats can extend
the life of your vehicle carpet and make it
easier to clean the interior. No matter what
mats are used, be sure they are fitted for
your vehicle and are properly positioned in
the footwell to prevent interference with
pedal operation. Mats should be maintained
with regular cleaning and replaced if they become
excessively worn.
WAI0006
Floor mat positioning aid (driver’s side
only)
This vehicle includes a front floor mat bracket to
act as a floor mat positioning aid. NISSAN floor
mats have been specially designed for your vehicle
model. The driver’s side floor mat has a
grommet hole incorporated in it. Position the mat
by placing the floor mat bracket hook through the
floor mat grommet hole while centering the mat in
the footwell.
Periodically check to make certain the mats are
properly positioned.
