Care
Mobility
In order to prevent staining, e.g due to clothing,
clean the leather approximately every two
months.
Clean light-colored leather
more frequently as it
shows dust and dirt more noticeably.
Use BMW Premium Leather Care since dirt and
grease will otherwise slow ly affect the protec-
tive layer of the leather.
Suitable care products are available at your
BMW center.
Upholstery care
Regularly vacuum with a vacuum cleaner.
To remove severe spots such as beverage
stains, use a soft sponge or lint-free microfiber
cloth and suitable interior cleaners.
Clean the upholstery down to the seams using a
sweeping motion. Avoid strong rubbing.
Opened Velcro fasteners on pants or
other articles of clothing can damage the
seat covers. Ensure that Velcro fasteners are
closed. <
Care of special parts
Light-alloy wheels
When cleaning on the vehicle, use only neutral
rim cleaner with a pH value of 5 to 9. Do not use
coarse cleansers and do not use steam clean-
ers at temperatures greater than 140 7/60 6.
Follow manufacturer's instructions.
Aggressive, acid-containing, or strongly alka-
line cleaning agents can destroy the protective
coating of nearby components such as the
brake discs.
Chrome look surfaces
Carefully clean vehicle parts such as the radia-
tor grill or door handles with copious quantities
of water and possibly a shampoo additive, par-
ticularly when roads ar e treated with deicing
salt.
Rubber parts
Treat only with water or rubber care products.
Do not use silicon-containing care products on
rubber seals; otherwis e, noise and damage
could occur.
Fine wood parts
Clean fine wood trim an d fine wood parts only
with a damp cloth. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.
Plastic parts
These include:
>Imitation leather surfaces
> Roofliner
> Lamp glasses
> Display pane of instrument cluster
> Parts spray painted matte black
> Painted parts in the passenger
compartment
Use a microfibre cloth for cleaning.
Moisten the cloth slightly with water.
Do not soak the roofliner. Do not use any cleaners that contain alco-
hol or solvents such as lacquer thinner,
cold cleaning agents, fuel, and the like; other-
wise, you may damage the surfaces. <
Safety belts
Dirty belt straps impede the reeling action and
thus have a negative impact on safety.
Do not clean chemic ally, as this may
destroy the webbing. <
Only clean with a mild soap solution in the
installed state.
Only reel in seat belts when they are dry.
