INTERIOR TRIM MAINTENANCE (1/2)
A well-maintained vehicle will last
longer. It is therefore recommended to
maintain the interior of the vehicle regu-
larly.
Glass instrument panel
(e.g. instrument panel, clock, exterior
temperature display, radio display, etc.)
Textiles (seats, door trim, etc)
Vacuum-clean the textiles regularly.
Liquid stain
Use a soft cloth (or cotton wool).
If this does not clean it properly, use a
soft cloth (or cotton wool) slightly mois-
tened with soapy water and then wipe
clean with a soft damp cloth or cotton
wool.
A stain should always be dealt with
swiftly.
Use soapy water.
Dab lightly (never rub) with a soft cloth,
rinse and remove the excess.
Whatever type of stain is on the trim,
use cold (or warm) soapy water with
natural soap.
Solid or pasty stain
Finally, carefully dry off with a soft dry
cloth.
Detergents (washing-up liquid, pow-
dered products, alcohol-based prod-
ucts) should not be used.
Carefully remove the excess solid or
pasty material immediately with a
spatula (working from the edges to the
centre to avoid spreading the stain).
Clean as for a liquid stain.
Cleaning products containing alco-
hol must not be used under any cir-
cumstances.
Use a soft cloth.
Rinse and soak up the excess.
Special instructions for sweets or
chewing gum
Seat belts
These must be kept clean.
Put an ice cube on the stain to solidify
it, then proceed as for a solid stain.
Use products selected by our Technical
Department (Approved outlets) or
warm, soapy water and a sponge and
wipe with a dry cloth.
Detergents or dyes must not be used
under any circumstances.
For further recommendations for
maintaining the interior, and/or for
any unsatisfactory results, please
see an authorised dealer.
