Care and cleaning
– Eliminate special stains (e.g. ball-point pens, felt pen, nail
varnish, dispersion paint, shoe cream etc.) with a special stain
remover suitable for leather.
Leather care
– Treat the leather every six months with the leather care
product available from Škoda dealers.
– Apply only a small amount of the care product.
– Dry the leather off with a soft cloth
It is best to consult your Škoda dealer if you have any questions regarding
cleaning and care of the leather interior.
Caution
You must on no account treat the leather with solvents (e.g. gasoline,
turpentine), floor wax, shoe cream or such like.
Alcantara upholstery
Do not use any leather care products for cleaning Alcantara upholsteries.
Eliminating dust and dirt
Wipe the Alcantara upholstery with a slightly moistened, soft cloth or clean
the covers with a suitable shampoo.
Removing stains
Moisten a soft cloth with lukewarm water or diluted methylated spirits and
dab the stain from the edges toward the middle.
Seat belts
– Keep the seat belts clean.
– Wash seat belts which have become soiled using a mild soapy
solution.
– Inspect the seat belts regularly to ensure they are in good
condition.
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 dry cleaning may
destroy the fabric. The seat belts must also not be allowed to come
into contact with corrosive liquids (such as acids etc.).
•
Seat belts which have damage to the webbing, the connections,
the inertia reel or the lock should be replaced by a Škoda dealer.
•
Inertia reel belts must be completely dried before being reeled
up.
Engine compartment
Good corrosion protection is very important, particularly in winter when
one often drives over its salt-strewn roads. One should therefore clean the
whole engine compartment and the radiator tank before and after the salt
spreading period and treat with preservative in order to prevent the salt
from being destructive.
