CLEANING THE ALLOY WHEELS
Only use approved wheel cleaning
products.
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
Some high pressure cleaning systems
are sufficiently powerful to penetrate
door and window seals, and damage
trim and door locks. Never aim the
water jet directly at the engine air intake,
heater air intakes, body seals or at any
components which may be damaged.
Never use cleaning products which are
not approved for use on vehicles.
Following cleaning of the vehicle
exterior (particularly with a pressure
washer), it is recommended that the
vehicle is taken for a short drive in order
to dry out the brakes.

LEATHER
To prevent ingrained dirt and staining, inspect
the seat upholstery regularly and clean every
one to two months, as follows:
• Wipe off fine dust from the seat surfaces
using a clean, damp, non-coloured cloth.
Change frequently to a clean area of cloth,
to avoid abrasive action on the leather
surface. Avoid over-wetting.
• If this is not sufficient, use a cloth which
has been dampened with warm soapy
water and then wrun g out. Use only mild
non-caustic soap.
• Use Jaguar Leather Cleaner for heavily
soiled areas. Dry off and rub with a clean
soft cloth, changing surfaces regularly.
Use Jaguar Leather Cleaner several times a
year to maintain its appearance and
suppleness. The clea ner will nourish and
moisturise and help to improve the surface
protective film agains t dust and substances.
• Do not use solvents. Do not use
detergents, furniture polish or household
cleaners. While these products may
initially give impressive results, their use
will lead to rapid deterioration of the leather
and will invalidate the warranty. Jaguar
recommend a basic se t of products that
have been specially selected for the type of
leather in your vehicle.
• Dark clothing may stain leather seats just
like other upholstery products.
• Sharp objects such as belts, zip fasteners,
rivets, etc., can leave permanent scratches
and scratch marks on the leather surface.
• Unless spillages such as tea, coffee or ink
are washed away immediately, permanent
staining may have to be accepted.
If a valet service is used, ensure that the
specialist concer ned is aware of, and follows,
these instructions precisely.
CLEANING FABRIC UPHOLSTERY
Never use soap, ammonia, bleach or
other cleaners inte nded for use on hard
surfaces.
Do not use upholstery cleaner on
electrical equipment such as facia
switches.
When cleaning around electrical
equipment such as switches, ensure
that fluids do not leak into any gaps
around the components or between
panels or trim.
Use Jaguar Upholstery Cleaner, following the
instructions. Avoid over-wetting.
REMOVING STAINS
Most stains on woollen fabric can be removed
if treatment is carried out immediately, before
the stain has a chance to dry-in.
Most stains can be treated with one of three
cleaning fluids: Jaguar U pholstery Cleaner, dry
cleaning fluid or clean water. Follow the
instructions on the package.
INSTRUMENT PANEL, CLOCK AND
AUDIO EQUIPMENT
Only use a soft dry cloth to clean the
instrument panel, cloc k and audio equipment.
Do not use cleaning fluids or sprays.
TOUCH SCREEN
Do not use abrasive cleaners on the
touch screen. For approved cleaning
products, contact your Dealer/
Authorised Repairer.

CARPETS AND MATS
Marks or stains can be removed by gentle
scrubbing with a weak solution of soap and
warm water.
For more stubborn stains a commercially
available carpet cleaner should be used.
SEAT BELTS
Do not allow any water, cleaning
products, or fabric from cloths to enter
the seat belt mechanism. Any
substance which enters the
mechanism may affect the
performance of the seat belt in an
impact.
Extend the seat belts fully, then use warm
water and a non-detergent soap to clean. Allow
the seat belts to dry naturally whilst fully
extended and do not allow the belts to retract
until fully dry.
Note: Whilst cleaning the seat belt, take the
opportunity to examine the webbing for
damage and wear. Any wear or damage should
be reported to, and rectified by, a Dealer/
Authorised Repairer.
AIRBAG MODULE COVERS
Airbag covers should only be cleaned
using a slightly dampened cloth, and
a small amount of upholstery cleaner.
Any substance which enters the
mechanism, can prevent correct
deployment of an airbag during an
impact.
