Taking care of your vehicle and cleaning the vehicle
– Remove fresh stains on a fat base (e.g. butter, mayonnaise,
chocolate etc.) with an absorbent cloth or household cleaning
paper or with the cleaner from the care set if the stain has not
yet penetrated into the surface.
– Use a grease dissolver for grease stains which have dried
in.
– 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.
•
Avoid leaving your vehicle for lengthy periods in bright sunlight in order
to avoid bleaching the leather. If you leave your vehicle parked in the open
for lengthy periods, protect the leather from the direct rays of the sun by
covering it over.
•
Sharp-edged objects on items of clothing such as zip fasteners, rivets,
sharp-edged belts may leave permanent scratches or signs of rubbing on
the surface.
Note
•
Use a care cream with light blocker and impregnation effect regularly
and each time after cleaning the leather. The cream nourishes the leather,
allows it to breathe and keeps it supple and also provides moisture. It also
creates surface protection.
•
Clean the leather every 2 to 3 months, remove fresh soiling each time
this occurs.
•
Remove fresh stains such as those from ball-point pens, ink, lipstick,
shoe cream etc., as quickly as possible.
•
Care also for the leather dye. Refreshen areas which have lost their
colour with a special coloured leather cream as required.
