GENUINE LEATHER STEERING
WHEEL/GEAR LEVER KNOB
These components must be cleaned with
mild soap and water only.
Never use spirit and/or alcohol based
products.
Before using off-the-shelves products de-
signed for cleaning car interiors, make sure
that they do not contain spirit and/or al-
cohol based substances before using them.
If window cleaner accidentally drips onto
the steering wheel or gear lever knob,
wipe away immediately and then wash the
concerned area with mild soap and water. IMPORTANT Be carefully when arranging
a steering wheel lock device, where applic-
able, to prevent damaging the leather up-
holstery by rubbing. INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS
It is advisable to clean interior parts with a
moist cloth and a solution of water and mild
soap. Use specific products for cleaning plas-
tic, without solvents and specifically de-
signed to prevent damage to the appearance
and colour of the treated parts to remove
grease and tough stains.
IMPORTANT Never use spirit or petro-
leum to clean the instrument panel.
