Cleaning carpet and floor mats
Obstructed pedals
WARNING
Unsuitable floor mats or mats that are not properly
secured can restrict the movement of the pedals or
interfere with actuation of the pedals. The accelerator
pedal may be accidentally pressed or the brake pedal
obstructed. This can result in an unexpected increase
in the driving speed or make braking difficult.
e
Only use floor mats that are suitable for the vehi-
cle.
e
Secure floor mats properly and do not lay them
loosely.
e
Do not lay several floor mats on top of each
other.
e
Ensure that floor mats are securely fitted again
after they have been removed, e.g. for cleaning.
To ensure proper cleaning of your vehicle, please ob-
serve the following:
e
Clean using a vacuum cleaner or a brush that is
not too soft.
e
Remove heavy dirt and stains using a stain re-
mover.

includes the correct size of floor mats with the appro-
priate fastening.
Cleaning airbag covers
Improper cleaning
DANGER
Unsuitable cleaning and care agents can penetrate
into the airbag system. Risk of damage to the airbag
system if incorrectly handled. The airbag system may
not deploy properly in the event of an accident.
e
Do not make any modifications whatsoever to
individual components, such as the covers of the
steering wheel, dashboard, front seats, and door
and roof frame panels.
e
Do not use cleaning agents or other liquids in the
area of the airbags.
Cleaning fabric linings
Fabric linings on pillars, roofliner, and sun visors, etc.
must only be cleaned using suitable cleaning agents,
suitable dry foam and a soft brush.
Caring for Race – Tex / other textiles
Do not use leather care products to clean Race – Tex
microfiber covers. For regular car care, it is sufficient
to clean the cover with a soft brush. Strong abrasion
or rubbing when cleaning will cause a lasting change
to the surface.
e
When lightly soiled, wet a soft cloth with water
or a pH neutral soap solution and wipe off the
dirt.
e
When heavily soiled, wet a soft cloth with luke-
warm water or thinned white spirit and dab the
dirt from the outside in.
Roadside Assistance
Steering wheels with Race – Tex microfiber covers
can become more heavily soiled from permanent skin
contact.
e
When lightly soiled, wet a soft cloth with a pH
neutral soap solution and wipe the outer rim of
the steering wheel.
e
When heavily soiled, wet a soft cloth with luke-
warm water or thinned white spirit and dab the
dirt from the outside in.
Cleaning seat belts
To ensure proper cleaning of your vehicle, please ob-
serve the following:
e
Use mild detergent for soiled belts.
e
When drying, avoid direct sunlight.
e
Only use suitable cleaning agents.
e
Do not dye or bleach belts. The belt fabric could
be weakened and could therefore impair safety.
Cleaning screens and touch displays
NOTE
Unsuitable cleaning and care agents can penetrate
the PCM unit. Improper handling can damage the

ners, gasoline, acetone, alcohol (ethanol, metha-
nol or isopropyl alcohol) or abrasive agents for
cleaning.

Do not spray any cleaning agents or other liquids
directly onto the PCM unit.
