Aggressive substances such as spilled fuel, oil,
grease or bird droppings, must be removed im‐
mediately to prevent the finish from being al‐
tered or discolored.
Caring for the convertible top
The appearance and life of the convertible top
depend on correct care and operation.
Note the following instructions:
▷ To prevent water stains, mildew spots, and
chafe marks, do not enclose the
convertible top in the convertible top well
for a long period and do not fold and stow
the convertible top in the convertible top
well while the top is wet or frozen.
▷ Remove water stains that may neverthe‐
less have appeared on the roofliner using a
microfiber cloth and an interior cleaner.
▷ When the vehicle is parked in enclosed
areas for lengthy periods, ensure that the
area is well ventilated.
▷ If possible, park the vehicle in the shade to
protect it from intensive solar radiation so
that color, rubber and fabric are not af‐
fected.
▷ Remove bird droppings immediately as
their corrosive effect will otherwise attack
the convertible top and damage the rubber
seals.
▷ Hard to remove tree sap or bird droppings
can be removed from the convertible top
with special tree sap remover and a soft
brush.
Do not use spot remover
Do not use spot remover, paint thinner,
solvent, gasoline, or similar products to re‐
move spots on the convertible top. These
products may destroy the rubber coating. In‐
correct care and cleaning may cause the
convertible top and its seams to become
leaky.◀
To remove heavy soiling, especially for light
colored convertible tops, use a special
convertible top cleaner.
Proceed as follows:
1. Spray the convertible top with the
convertible top cleaner.
2. Make the convertible top cleaner foam up
using a well saturated sponge, moving it in
circular motions.
3. Finish washing the vehicle in the car wash
or rinse with ample amounts of water.
Otherwise, follow the instructions for use from
the manufacturer.
Treat the convertible top with an impregnating
agent after it has been washed three to five
times.
Suitable cleaners and car products can be ob‐
tained from the service department.
Leather care
Remove dust from the leather often, using a
cloth or vacuum cleaner.
Otherwise, particles of dust and road grime
chafe in pores and folds, and lead to increased
wear and premature degradation of the leather
surface.
To guard against discoloration, such as from
clothing, provide leather care roughly every
two months.
Clean light-colored leather more frequently be‐
cause soiling on such surfaces is substantially
more visible.
Use leather care products; otherwise, dirt and
grease will gradually break down the protective
layer of the leather surface.
Suitable care products are available from the
service center.
Upholstery material care
Vacuum regularly with a vacuum cleaner.
