Window Interiors
Remove dust and sand first using a
vacuum cleaner or other means, then
wipe dirt off using a soft cloth with a
leather cleaner or a soft cloth soaked in
mild soap.
Caution!
If the windows become covered with an
oily, greasy, or waxy film, clean them
with glass cleaner. Follow the directions
on the container.
Sand and dust on the seat surface may
damage the overcoat of the genuine
leather surfaces and accelerate wear.
Wipe off the remaining cleaner or soap
using a cloth soaked in clean water and
wrung out well.
Note: Do not scrape or scratch the
inside of the window glass. It could
damage the thermal filaments.
Greasy soiling on genuine leather may
cause molding and stains.
Remove moisture with a dry, soft cloth
and allow the leather to further dry in a
well-ventilated, shaded area.
Rubbing hard with a stiff brush or cloth
may cause damage.
Caution!
If the leather gets wet such as from
rain, also remove moisture and dry it as
soon as possible.
Do not wipe the leather using alcohol,
chlorine bleach, or organic solvents such
as thinner, benzene, or gasoline.
Otherwise, it may cause discoloration or
stains.
When washing the inside of the window
glass, use a soft cloth dampened in
lukewarm water, gently wiping the thermal
filaments. Use of glass cleaning products
could damage the thermal filaments.
Note:
Because genuine leather is a natural
material, its surface is not uniform and
it may have natural scars, scratches,
and wrinkles.
If the seats get wet, promptly remove
moisture with a dry cloth. Remaining
moisture on the surface may cause
deterioration such as hardening and
shrinkage.
Leather Parts — If
Equipped
To maintain the quality for as long
as possible, periodical maintenance,
about twice a year, is recommended.
Caution!
Exposure to direct sunlight for long
periods may cause deterioration and
shrinkage. When parking the car under
direct sunlight for long periods, shade the
interior using sunshades.
Do not use Alcohol and Alcohol-based
and/or Ketone based cleaning products to
clean leather seats, as damage to the seat
may result.
Do not leave vinyl products on the seats
for long periods as they may affect the
leather quality and coloring. If the cabin
temperature becomes hot, the vinyl may
deteriorate and adhere to the genuine
leather.
