Washing and cleaning the vehicle

Protecting leather upholstery

1.Put a small amount of protectant cream on a cloth and apply a thin coating of cream to the upholstery with light circular move- ments.

2.Allow the leather to dry for 20 minutes.

This will help the leather resist staining and protect against sunlight's harmful UV rays.

CAUTION

•Under no circumstances should gaso- line, naphtha or similar cleaning agents be used on the plastic or the leather since these can cause damage.

•Take extra care when removing stains such as ink or lipstick since the coloring can spread.

•Use solvents sparingly. Too much sol- vent can damage the seat padding.

•Start from the outside of the stain and work toward the center.

•Sharp objects (e.g. pencils or pens in a pocket) or velcro fasteners on clothing may damage the textile upholstery.

•Clothing that is not colorfast, such as new jeans or suede garments, may stain the upholstery.

Cleaning the seat belts

Clean only with lukewarm water and a mild soap solution.

Cleaning floor mats

The floor mats should be vacuumed or brushed clean regularly, especially during winter when they should be taken out for drying. Spots on textile mats can be removed with a mild deter- gent.
