CAUTION
Natural leather / Faux leather / Alcantara
■
In lengthy periods in bright sunlight, it might be sensible to cover these ma-
■
terials in order to avoid bleaching.
Fresh stains (e.g. from pens, lipstick, shoe polish etc.) should be removed as
■
soon as possible.
Ensure that no part of the leather is soaked through during cleaning and
■
that no water gets into the seams.
Do not clean the roof panelling with a brush – risk of damage to the surface
■
of the panelling.

on Alcantara
seat upholstery.
Some clothing fabrics (e.g. dark denim) do not have sufficient colour fast-
■
ness - this may leave evident marks on upholstery. This is not a defect in the
fabric.
Sharp objects on garments (e.g. zips, rivets, sharp- edged belts) can dam-
■
age the upholstery fabrics in the vehicle. Such damage cannot be subse-
quently recognised as a justified complaint.
Plastic parts
■
Do not attach scents or air fresheners to the dashboard – there is a risk of
■
damage to the dashboard.
Windows
■
Do not attach any stickers to the filaments or glass antenna - there is risk
■
of damage.
Covers of electrically heated seats
■
Do not clean with water or other liquids - there is a risk of damage to the
■
heating system.
Do not dry by switching on the heating.
■
Seat belts
■
Allow to dry before rolling up the seat belts.
