REAL LEATHER STEERING WHEEL/GEAR
LEVER KNOB
These components must be cleaned with mild soap and
water only.
Never use alcohol and/or alcohol-based products.
Before using off-the-shelf products designed for cleaning
vehicle interiors, make sure that they do not contain
alcohol and/or alcohol-based substances.
If window cleaner accidentally drips onto the steering
wheel or gear lever knob, wipe away immediately and
then wash the affected area with mild soap and water.
IMPORTANT Be careful when using a steering wheel
lock device, where applicable, to prevent damaging the
leather upholstery by rubbing.
INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS
It is advisable to clean interior plastic parts with a
microfibre cloth, if possible, moistened with a solution
of water and non-abrasive mild soap. Use specific
products for cleaning plastic, without solvents and
specifically designed to prevent damage to the
appearance and colour of the treated parts to remove
grease and tough stains.
Remove dust using a microfibre cloth, if necessary
moistened with water. The use of paper tissues is not
recommended as these may leave residues.
IMPORTANT Never use alcohol or petroleum to clean
the instrument panel.
