Do not treat artificial leather/Alcantara
●
leather with leather cleaning products, sol-
vents, wax polish, shoe cream, stain removers
or similar products.
If the stain is very hard to remove, take the
●
vehicle to a specialised workshop to have it
removed there. This will prevent damage.
Do not use steam cleaners, brushes, hard
●
sponges, etc. to clean.
Do not turn on seat heating* to dry the
●
seats.
Sharp objects on clothing, such as zips, riv-
●
ets or belts can damage the surface.
Open Velcro, e.g. on clothes can damage
●
the seat upholstery. Make sure that Velcro
fasteners are closed.

Avoid exposing leather to direct sunlight for
●
long periods, otherwise it may tend to lose
some of its colour. If the car is left for a pro-
Vehicle maintenance
longed period in the bright sun, it is best to
cover the leather.
WARNING
Do not use water-repellent coatings on the
windscreen. In bad visibility conditions
such as humid weather, darkness or when
the sun is in its lowest point, visibility may
be impacted. Risk of accident! Such coat-
ings can also cause the windscreen wiper
blades to make noise.
Note
Remains of insects can be removed much
●
more easily with previously treated paint.
Regular car care treatments can prevent
●
deposits of ambient rust.
