iii. Seat Belts
If your seat belts get dirty, you can use
a soft brush with a mixture of mild
soap and warm water to clean them.
Do not use bleach, dye, or cleaning
solvents. They can weaken the belt
material. Let the belts air-dry before
you use the Reva.
Dirt builds up in the loops of the seat
belt anchors and can cause the belts
to retract slowly. Wipe the insides of
the loops with a clean cloth dampened
in mild soap and warm water.
iv. Windows
Clean the windows inside and outside
with soap and water or a commercially
available glass cleaner. This will
remove the haze that builds up on the
inside of the windows. Use a soft cloth
or paper towels to clean all glass and
clear plastic surfaces.
Do not use / spray water in the
interior of your
Reva . Doing so can
result in damage(s) to the various
electronics components. It is
advisable to vacuum clean the
inside of your
Reva whenever
required.
CAUTION
B. Interior
i. Carpets
To remove dirt, vacuum carpets
frequently. Always keep the carpets as
dry as possible.
ii. Fabric
Vacuum dirt and dust out of the
upholstery fabric frequently. To clean
stubborn stains, use a commercially
available fabric cleaner. To make sure
it does not bleach or stain the fabric,
test it on a hidden area of the fabric.
Make sure the solution does not
penetrate into the foam beneath the
fabric. Covering your headrest with a
cover will ensure that the upholstery is
maintained.

8.7 STORING YOUR REVA / 8.8 APPEARANCE CARE
Maintenance
STORING YOUR REVA
In the event, you are not using your
Reva for an extended period for e.g. a
week or so:
• Top-up the Power Pack charge level
to 100%.
• Ensure it is kept on charge while you
are away. The computer-controlled
on-board charger will keep the
Power Pack charged as and when a
discharge takes place.
• Leave the parking brake engaged
and the Control Knob in the ‘N’
(Neutral) position.
• If the vehicle is to be stored for a
longer period, it should ideally be
supported on jack stands / blocks,
so that the tyres are off the ground.
• Support the wiper blade arms with a
folded towel or paper tag so that
they do not touch the windshield.
APPEARANCE CARE
Regular cleaning and polishing your
Reva helps keep it looking new. Here
are some tips on preserving the
appearance of your Reva.
A. Exterior
i. Washing:
• Dirt and grit can scratch the paint,
while tree sap and bird droppings
can permanently ruin the finish.
• Rinse the vehicle thoroughly with
cold water to remove loose dirt.
• Mix mild detergent specially made for
Reva, wash with cold water.
• Wash your Reva using sponge or soft
cloth. Start at the top and work your
way down and rinse frequently.
• Check the body for tree sap and
other foreign particles. Clean it as
soon as possible to prevent any
stain marks on paint and harm the
finish.
• After washing, dry it with chamois or
a soft towel.
ii. Wheels and wheel covers:
These have to be cleaned like the rest
of the exteriors.
• Remove the wheel covers carefully,
wash and keep on a soft surface so
they do not get scratched.
• Use a mild detergent and soft brush
to clean the wheels.
• Wash wheels with water and refix
wheel caps.
