Advice  
–
Cleaning stubborn stains  
If this does not provide satisfactory results,  
use a gentle soap solution.  
carried out only by a specialised workshop or  
a petrol station.  
–
More stubborn dirt can be removed using a  
mild soap solution (pure liquid soap; two  
tablespoons diluted in one litre of water)  
and a cloth.  
CAUTION  
Cleaning products which contain solvents will  
damage the material.  
Caring for the vehicle interior  
–
–
Do not let the water soak through the leath-  
er or soak into the seams.  
Cleaning plastic parts and the  
instrument panel  
Then wipe off with a soft, dry cloth.  
Cloth seat covers and fabric trim  
cleaning  
–
–
Use a clean, damp cloth to clean plastic  
parts and the dash panel.  
Leather maintenance  
Cloth seat covers and fabric trim on the  
doors, headlining etc. can be cleaned with a  
special interior cleaner or with dry foam and  
a soft brush.  
–
The leather should be treated twice a year  
with a special leather-care product, availa-  
ble at Technical Services.  
If this does not provide satisfactory results,  
use a special solvent-free plastic cleaning  
product.  
–
–
Apply these products very sparingly.  
Then wipe off with a soft, dry cloth.  
WARNING  
Cleaning the radio and climate  
controls  
Never clean the dash panel and the airbag  
module surface with cleaners containing sol-  
vents. Solvents cause the surface to become  
porous. If the airbag triggered, plastic parts  
could become detached and cause injuries.  
SEAT does everything possible to preserve  
the genuine qualities of this natural product.  
Due to the natural properties of the specially  
selected hides employed, the finished leath-  
er has a certain sensitivity to grease and dirt,  
etc. so a degree of care is required in every-  
day use and when looking after the leather.  
To clean the radio and/or climate controls,  
use a soft damp cloth. For more resistant dirt,  
a neutral soap solution may be used.  
CAUTION  
Cleaning products which contain solvents will  
damage the material.  
Dust and grit in the pores and seams can  
scratch and damage the surface. If the vehi-  
cle is under solar radiation for long periods,  
the leather should be protected to prevent it  
from fading. However, slight colour variations  
in high-quality natural leather are normal.  
Leather cleaning*  
Normal cleaning  
–
Moisten a cotton or woollen cloth with wa-  
ter and wipe over the leather surfaces.  
Wooden trim cleaning*  
–
Clean the wooden trim with a water-mois-  
tened clean cloth.
