CLEANING THE
INTERIOR OF YOUR
VEHICLE
After cleaning the interior of your vehicle
with water, cleaner or similar, wipe and
dry in a shady, well-ventilated area.
To clean the inside of the rear window,
always use a soft cloth and wipe the
window glass along the demister heater
element so as not to cause damage.
338)
162)
Plastic, fabric and flocked parts
1. Lightly wipe these off with a soft
cloth soaked in a mild soap and water
solution.
2. Dip cloth in fresh water and wring it
out well. Using this cloth, wipe off the
detergent thoroughly.
Do not use cleaners, conditioners, and
protectants containing silicones or wax.
Such products, when applied to the
instrument panels or other parts, may
cause reflections on the windscreen
and obscure vision. Also, if such
products get on the switches of the
electrical accessories, it may lead to
failure of these accessories.
Upholstery
1. To maintain the value of your new
vehicle, handle the upholstery carefully
and keep the interior clean. Use a
vacuum cleaner and brush to clean theseats. If stained, synthetic leather
should be cleaned with an appropriate
cleaner. Cloth fabrics can be cleaned
with either upholstery cleaner or a mild
soap and water solution.
2. Clean the carpeting with a vacuum
cleaner and remove any stains with
carpet cleaner. Oil and grease can be
removed by lightly dabbing with a clean
colourfast cloth and stain remover.
Genuine leather
1. To clean, lightly wipe the leather with
a soft cloth soaked in a mild soap and
water solution.
2. Dip cloth in fresh water and wring it
out well. Using this cloth, wipe off the
detergent thoroughly.
3. Apply leather protecting agent to the
genuine leather surface.
If genuine leather is wet with water or is
washed in water, wipe off water as
quickly as possible with a dry, soft
cloth. If left damp, mildew may grow.
Organic solvents such as benzine,
kerosene, alcohol and petrol, acid or
alkaline solvents may discolour the
genuine leather surface. Be sure to use
neutral detergents.
Remove dirty patches or oil substances
quickly as they can stain genuine
leather.
The genuine leather surface may
harden and shrink if it is exposed todirect rays of the sun for long hours.
When your vehicle is parked, place it in
the shade as much as possible.
When the temperature of the vehicle
interior rises in summer, vinyl products
left on the genuine leather seat may
deteriorate and stick to the seat.
WARNING
338)Never use flammable products, such
as petrol ether or rectified petrol to clean
the inside of the car. The electrostatic
charges which are generated by rubbing
during the cleaning operation may cause a
fire.
IMPORTANT
162)Do not use organic substances
(solvents, benzine, kerosene, alcohol,
petrol, etc.) or alkaline or acidic solutions.
These chemicals can cause discolouring,
staining or cracking of the surface. If you
use cleaners or polishing agents, make
sure their ingredients do not include the
substances mentioned above.
