way:
1. Remove dust and loose dirt with a
vacuum cleaner.
2. Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap and water
solution. Dry the area with a clean, soft
cloth.
3. Make sure the leather is dry, then apply
a small amount of conditioner to a
clean, dry cloth.
4. Rub the conditioner into the leather until it disappears. Allow the
conditioner to dry, then repeat the
process for the entire interior. If a film
appears, wipe it off with a dry, clean
cloth.
5. For additional information and assistance, we recommend that you
contact an authorized dealer.
