Care of interior
Glass
Use the same cleaning agents as for exteri­
or glass surfaces and polish dry.
Fabric
Use a vacuum cleaner or a soft bristle brush
to remove dust and loose dirt from carpet­
ing, upholstery, headliner and other trim.
Dirt stains can usually be removed with a
lukewarm soapy water or all-purpose clean­
er solution, or a dry foam cleaner.
For greasy, oily and other stubborn stains,
use a spot remover. Do not pour the liquid
on the fabric. Dampen a clean cloth and rub
carefully, starting at the edge and working
inward.
Plastic and vinyl
Use a clean, damp cloth or sponge to re­
move dust. For other soil, use a lukewarm
all-purpose cleaning solution or a mild
saddle soap for vinyl trim. Remove water
spots and soap traces with a clean, damp
cloth or sponge. Use a clean, soft cloth to
rub dry.
Grease, tar or oil stains can be removed
with a clean cloth or sponge soaked with all­
purpose cleaner or with a solvent type vinyl
cleaning agent.
Occasionally apply a colorless vinyl or leath­
er preservative to retain the material's luster
and pliability.
Aluminum trim
Use only neutral-pH products to remove
spots and deposits from aluminum sur­
faces. Chrome care products and alkaline
cleaners will attack aluminum surfaces and
can damage them over time.
VEHICLE CARE
Cleaning and care of leather
upholstery
Audi does everything possible to preserve
the special qualities of natural leather uphol­
stery. When treating the hides, care is taken
to avoid all processes which could impair
the natural advantages of the material
which make for extra comfort.
Because of the exclusive nature of the
hides selected and the natural properties of
the leather, this kind of upholstery requires
a certain amount of care in everyday use
since the leather is sensitive to materials
such as oil, grease and dirt or wet clothing.
If it is given regular attention, the leather up­
holstery will retain its high quality for many
years.
