Maintenance
●
If you find any damage to the belt webbing,
belt fittings, the belt retractor or the buckle, ask
your specialised workshop to replace the belt
in question.
Fabrics/artificial leather/microfibre
●
Do not treat artificial leather/microfibre with
leather cleaning products, solvents, 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 re-
moved 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, rivets
or belts can damage the surface.
●
Open Velcro, e.g. on clothes can damage the
seat upholstery. Make sure that Velcro fasten-
ers are closed.
Natural leather
●
Never use solvents, wax polish, shoe cream,
spot removers or similar products on leather.
●
Sharp objects on clothing, such as zips, rivets
or belts can damage the surface.
●
Do not use steam cleaners, brushes, hard
sponges, etc. to clean.
●
Do not turn on seat heating to dry the seats.
●
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-
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 impac-
ted. Accident hazard! Such coatings 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.
