Natural leather
Leather is a natural material with specific properties and requires regular cleaning and maintenance.
The leather should be cleaned on a regular basis depending on the amount of wear-and-tear.
Dust and dirt in pores and creases act as abrasives. This leads to severe abrasion and the premature embrittlement of the leather surface.
We recommend that you remove dust at regular short intervals with a cloth or vacuum cleaner.
Clean soiled leather surfaces with a cotton or woollen cloth lightly moistened with water and then dry with a clean dry cloth » .
Clean more severely soiled areas with a cloth soaked in a mild soap solution (2 tablespoons of natural soap to 1 litre of water).
Use a cleaning agent specially developed for the purpose to remove stains.
Treat the leather with a suitable leather care product at suitable regular intervals.
CAUTION
This is not a defect in the seat cover, but poor colour fastness of the clothing textiles.
Note
During the life of the vehicle, minor visible changes can occur on the leather parts of the covers (e. g wrinkles or creases as a result of the stress of the covers).
Synthetic leather, fabrics and Alcantara®
Synthetic leather
Clean the synthetic leather with a damp cloth.
If the synthetic leather does not come completely clean with this method, a mild soap solution or specific cleaning agent must be used.
Fabrics
Clean upholstery cover materials and cloth trims on doors, boot cover, etc. using specific cleaning agents, e.g., dry foam.
Use a soft sponge, brush, or commercially available microfibre cloth.

Alcantara®
Dust and fine dirt particles in pores, creases and seams may chafe and damage the surface.
If you leave your vehicle parked in the open for lengthy periods, protect the Alcantara ® seat upholstery from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
Minor changes in colour caused by use are normal.
CAUTION
This is not a defect in the seat cover, but poor colour fastness of the clothing textiles.

Electrically heated seats
Do not wet clean the seat covers as this can damage the seat heating system.
Use a specific cleaning agent such as dry foam or similar to clean the covers.
Seats without seat heating
Thoroughly vacuum the seat covers with a vacuum cleaner before cleaning.
Clean the seat covers with a damp cloth or cleaning agents particularly formulated for them.
Compressed areas created on the fabrics by everyday use can be removed by brushing against the nap with a lightly moistened brush.
Always treat all parts of the upholstery so that no visible boundaries are created.
Then leave the seat to dry completely.
