Seat Belt 
 

The seat belt can be washed with neutral 
soap water or tepid water.   
Use sponge or soft cloth to clean it. And 
check if the seat belt has evidence of 
abrasion or cut. 

   

Notice 

‹

 

The seat belt can not be cleaned 

with coloring agent or bleacher, or its 
strength will be weakened. 

‹

 

Do not use the seat belt until it is 

dry. 

 

Doors and Windows 

Doors and windows can be cleaned with 
normal household detergent. 

 

Notice 

‹

 

While cleaning the inside of the 

back window, please be careful not to 
scratch or damage the heater strip or 
the plug.    

 
 

Please use damp and soft cloth to clean the 
air conditioning control panel, car stereo 
system, instrument panel, central control 
panel, and switches. 
Dip a clean and soft cloth into the water or 
tepid water, and then wipe away the dust 
gently. 
   

Notice 

‹

 

Do not use organic substances 

(like solvent, kerosene, alcohol, or gas) 
and acid-base solutions, because these 
chemicals will lead to color change, 
taint, and peeling on the surface.     

‹

 

Before using detergent or polish, 

first please make sure they do not 
include the above substances.   

‹

 

If you use new liquid detergent, 

please do not spill the liquid onto the 
inside surface of the car as they may 
contain above substance. You should 
clean up the spilled liquid at once in the 
way described previously.     

 
 
 
 
 

Leather Ornament Inside the Car 

 

For leather ornaments, you can use neutral 
detergent designed for woolen fabrics to 
clean them. 
Use a soft cloth dipped with 5% of neutral 
detergent designed for woolen fabrics to 
erase the dust, and then wipe off the residual 
detergent with a clean wet cloth.   
 
If any part of the leather gets wet after 
cleaning, please wipe it dry with a clean soft 
cloth and keep it in the ventilated shade for 
drying.  

 

Notice 

‹

 

If you can not wash off the dirt 

with neutral detergent, please use the 
detergent without organic solvent. 

‹

 

Do not use organic substances to 

clean the leather, like naphtha, alcohol, 
gas, or acid-base solution, because they 
will make the leather fade.         

‹

 

Dirty leather ornaments will 

generate mold. Please try to avoid oil 
stain and always keep the ornaments 
clean.
