Interior Care

qInstrument panel Precautions
Prevent caustic solutions such as perfume
and cosmetic oils from contacting the
instrument panel. They'll damage and
discolour it. If these solutions get on the
instrument panel, wipe them off
immediately.
CAUTION
Do not use glazing agents.
Glazing agents contain ingredients
which may cause discolouration,
wrinkling, cracks and peeling.
qCleaning the Interior and Floors
Keeping the interior clean ― especially
the floor ― is important to help prevent
rust.
Remove mud and salt from the cabin floor
as soon as possible.
If you transport salt, chemicals, or other
toxic cargo in the cabin, be very careful
not to spill it. If you do, clean it up
carefully.
From time to time, dry the cabin floor.
Moisture may collect there and generate a
rusting process.

qCleaning the Upholstery and
Interior Trim
Vinyl
Remove dust and loose dirt from vinyl
with a whisk broom or vacuum cleaner.
Clean vinyl with a leather-and-vinyl
cleaner.
Leather
Real leather isn't uniform and may have
scars, scratches, and wrinkles. Clean it
with a leather cleaner or mild soap.
Wipe it with a damp soft cloth; then dry
and buff it with a dry soft cloth.
Fabric
Remove dust and loose dirt from fabric
with a whisk broom or vacuum cleaner.
Clean it with a mild soap solution good
for upholstery and carpets. Remove fresh
spots immediately with a fabric spot
cleaner.
To keep the fabric looking clean and
fresh, take care of it. Otherwise its colour
will be affected, it can be stained easily,
and its fire-resistance may be reduced.
CAUTION
Use only recommended cleaners and
procedures. Others may affect
appearance and fire-resistance.
