must be cared for just like any other vehicle. For
upholstery that is severely stained or surface finish
that is badly damaged, contact an authorized dealer

If possible, always overlap Velcro strips (the
self-gripping parts) when washing, to minimize lint
and thread build-up on hook strips and prevent
damage to upholstery fabric by these.
