products and observe the instructions
carefully.

that the cleaning products used contain
no alcohol or alcohol derivatives, even in
small quantities.
PLASTIC AND COATED PARTS
54)
Clean interior plastic parts with a damp
cloth (if possible made from microfibre),
and a solution of water and neutral, non-
abrasive detergent.
To clean oily or persistent stains,
use specific products free from
solvents and designed to maintain the
original appearance and colour of the
components.
Remove any dust using a microfibre
cloth, if necessary moistened with
water. The use of paper tissues is not
recommended as these may leave
residues.

Alcantara parts maintenance procedure:
treat the surface with a microfibre
cloth moistened with mild marseille soap
and water, taking care to cover the entire
covered area and applying a uniform light
pressure (do not rub vigorously);
rinse and wring out the microfibre
cloth, and pass it again over the covered
area treated according to the previous
point;
let it dry then brush gently with a soft
brush.
WARNING On the GTAm version, do not
climb into the rear of the passenger
compartment by treading on the
Alcantara-covered part.
GENUINE LEATHER PARTS

Use only water and mild soap to clean
these parts. Never use alcohol or alcohol-
based products.
Before using a specific product for
cleaning interiors, make sure that it does
not contain alcohol and/or alcohol based
substances.
CARBON FIBRE PARTS
To eliminate small scratches and marks
on the carbon, contact an Authorized
Centre at a Dedicated Alfa Romeo
Dealership. An improperly performed
operation may irreparably damage the
carbon.
WARNING
158) ever use flammable products, such as
petrol ether or rectified petrol to clean the
inside of the car. The electrostatic charges
which are generated by rubbing during the
cleaning operation may cause a fire.
159) Do not keep aerosol cans in the car:
they might explode. Aerosol cans must not
be exposed to temperatures above 50°C.
Temperatures may greatly exceed this
value inside a car exposed to direct sunlight.

under the pedals. Make sure that mat are
always flat and do not interfere with the
pedals.

acetone or solvents.
IMPORTANT
54) Never use alcohol, petrols and
derivatives to clean the dashboard and
instrument panel lens.
55) Do not use "hard" synthetic brushes as
they could damage the fabric irreparably.
Do not perform partial, localized
interventions that could cause "aesthetic"
differences between the treated and
untreated areas. Do not use alcohol or
acetone-based solvents.
