Fabrics and fabric coverings
Fabrics and fabr ic coverings (e.g. seats , door tr im panels, etc.) should
be cleaned at regular intervals with a vacuum cleaner . This removes
surface dirt particles which could become embedded in the fabric
through use . Steam cleaners should not be used, because the steam
tends to push the dirt deeper into the fabric and lock it there .
Normal clean ing
Genera lly, we recommend using a soft sponge or a lint-free
microfiber cloth to the clean fabric . Brushes should only be used for
carpets and floor mats, since other fabric surfaces could be harmed
by brushes . _,,
