Also look after the leather dye. Refresh any areas with a special coloured leath-
■
er cream as required.
The leather is a natural material with specific properties. During the use of the
■
vehicle, minor optical changes can occur on the leather parts of the covers (e. g
wrinkles or creases as a result of the stress of the covers).
Seat belts
ä
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 117.
Keep the seat belts clean!
Clean dirty seat belts using a mild soapy solution and remove coarse dirt with a
soft brush!
Check the condition of all the seat belts on a regular basis.
Belt webbing which has become severely soiled may prevent the inertia reel from
reeling up the belt properly.
WARNING
The seat belts must not be removed for cleaning.
■
Never clean the seat belts chemically as chemical cleaning products could
■
destroy the fabric. The seat belts must also not be allowed to come into con-
tact with corrosive liquids (such as acids etc.).
Seat belts which have damage to the webbing, connections, inertia reel or
■
lock should be replaced by a ŠKODA specialist garage.
Inertia reel belts must be completely dried before being reeled up.
