INTERIORS
Periodically check that water is not
trapped under the mats (due to water
dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.)
which could cause oxidisation of the
sheet metal.
CLEANING SEATS AND
FABRIC AND VELVET PARTS
Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to
remove dust. Velvet is cleaned better if
the brush is moistened.
Rub the seats with a sponge moistened
with a solution of water and neutral de-
tergent.
CLEANING LEATHER SEATS
(optional for versions/
markets where applicable)
Remove dried on dirt with lightly moist-
ened chamois leather or cloth without
pressing too hard.
Remove liquid or grease stains with a dry
absorbent cloth without rubbing. Then
wipe with a soft cloth or chamois leather
with water and neutral soap.
If the stain persists, use specific prod-
ucts, carefully following the instructions
for use.
IMPORTANT Never use spirit or al-
cohol-based products.
Fabric upholstery of
your car is purpose-
made to withstand com-
mon wear resulting from nor-
mal use of the car. It is howev-
er absolutely necessary to pre-
vent hard and/or prolonged
scratching/scraping caused by
clothing accessories like metal-
lic buckles, studs, “Velcro” fix-
ings, etc. that stressing locally
the fabric could break yarns and
damage the upholstery as a
consequence.
