INTERIOR

226) 227) 228) 229)
Periodically check the cleanliness of the
interior, beneath the mats, which could
cause oxidation of the sheet metal.
SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a
vacuum cleaner.
It is advisable to use a moist brush on
velvet upholstery. Rub the seats with
a sponge moistened with a solution of
water and neutral detergent.
Cleaning heat press images on seats
(where provided)
Due to the colour, opacity and wear-
resistant protection with which the heat
press images on some seat versions are
made, they may be subject to temporary
scratching if they are touched by finger
nails, keys, or other hard objects.
In such cases, the visible signs do not
impair the profiled images, and can easily
be removed by wiping the affected area
with a microfibre cloth moistened with
water (not dry) to restore the seat to its
original condition.
WARNING The microfibre cloth must not
have been previously soaked in other
substances or detergents.
LEATHER SEATS
(where provided)
Remove the dry dirt with a chamois or
slightly damp cloth, without exerting too
much pressure.
Remove any liquid or grease stains using
an absorbent dry cloth, without rubbing.
Then clean with a soft cloth or buckskin
cloth dampened with water and mild
soap. If the stain persists, use specific
products and observe the instructions
carefully.
WARNING Never use alcohol. Make sure
that the cleaning products used contain
no alcohol or alcohol derivatives, even in
small quantities.
PLASTIC AND COATED PARTS
95)
Clean interior plastic parts with a damp
cloth (if possible made from microfibre),
and a solution of water and neutral, non-
abrasive detergent.
To clean oily or persistent stains,
use specific products free from
solvents and designed to maintain the
original appearance and colour of the
components.
Remove any dust using a microfibre
cloth, if necessary moistened with
water. The use of paper tissues is not
recommended as these may leave
residues.
ALCANTARA PARTS
(where provided)

area treated according to the previous
point;
let it dry then brush gently with a soft
brush.

these parts. Never use alcohol or alcohol-
