CAUTION■Natural leather /Faux leather / Alcantara ®
/ material
■ In lengthy periods in bright sunlight, it might be sensible to cover these
materials in order to avoid bleaching. ■ Fresh stains (e.g. from pens, lipstick, shoe polish etc.) should be removed as
soon as possible.
■ Ensure that no part of the leather is soaked through during cleaning and
that no water gets into the seams.
■ Do not clean the roof panelling with a brush – risk of damage to the surface
of the panelling.
■ Do not use solvents, floor wax, shoe cream, stain remover or similar agents
on Alcantara ®
seat upholstery.
■ Some clothing fabrics (e.g. dark denim) do not have sufficient colour fast-
ness - this may leave evident marks on upholstery. This is not a defect in the
fabric.
■ Sharp objects on garments (e.g. zips, rivets, sharp- edged belts) can dam-
age the upholstery fabrics in the vehicle. Such damage cannot be subse-
quently recognised as a justified complaint.■
Plastic parts ■ Do not attach scents or air fresheners to the dashboard – there is a risk of
damage to the dashboard.
■

of damage.
