After cleaning the interior of your vehicle with water, cleaner
or similar, wipe and dry in a shady, well-ventilated area.
CAUTION
!
● Do not use organic substances (solvents, kerosine,
alcohol, gasoline, etc.) or alkaline or acidic solutions.
These chemicals can cause discolouring, staining or
cracking of the surface.
If you use cleaners or polishing agents, make sure
their ingredients do not include the substances men-
tioned above.
NOTE
● Always read the instructions on the cleaner label.
Plastic, vinyl leather, fabric and flocked parts

ing silicons or wax.
Such products may cause annoying reflections and

upholstery carefully and keep the interior clean.

an appropriate cleaner, and cloth fabrics can be cleaned
with either upholstery cleaner or a 3% solution of neutral
detergent in lukewarm water.

any stains with carpet cleaner. Oil and grease can be
removed by lightly dabbing with a clean colourfast cloth
and stain remover.
