Vehicle care
Car care products
BMW recommends using cleaning and care
products from BMW, since these have been
tested and approved.
Car care and cleaning products
Follow the instructions on the container.
When cleaning the interior, open the doors or
windows.
Only use products intended for cleaning vehi‐
cles.
Cleansers can contain substances that are dan‐
gerous and harmful to your health.◀
Vehicle paint
Regular care contributes to driving safety and
value retention. Environmental influences can act on the vehicle
paint.
Tailor the frequency and extent of your car
care to these influences.
Caring for the convertible top
The appearance and life of the convertible top
depend on correct care and operation.
Note the following instructions:
▷ To avoid water stains, mildew spots, and
chafe marks, do not fold and stow the con‐
vertible top in the convertible top well while
the top is wet or frozen.
▷ Remove water stains that may nevertheless
have appeared on the headliner using a mi‐
crofiber cloth and an interior cleaner.
▷ When the vehicle is parked in enclosed
areas for lengthy periods, ensure that the
area is well ventilated.
▷ Remove bird droppings immediately as their
corrosive effect will otherwise attack the
convertible top and damage the rubber
seals.
Do not use spot remover, paint thinner,
solvent,
benzine, or similar products to re‐
move spots on the convertible top. These prod‐
ucts may destroy the rubber coating. Incorrect
care and cleaning may cause the convertible top
and its seams to become leaky.◀
To remove heavy soiling, use a special conver‐
tible top cleaner.
Follow the instructions for use from the manu‐
facturer.
Treat the convertible top with an impregnating
agent after it has been washed three to five
times.
Leather care
Remove dust from the leather often, using a
cloth or vacuum cleaner.
Otherwise, particles of dust and road grime
chafe in pores and folds, and lead to increased
wear and premature degradation of the leather
surface. Seite 255
