Maintenance and care
Remove dirt and dust using a vac-
uum cleaner. Wipe dirty surfaces
with a cloth dampened with luke-
warm water.
If dirt cannot be removed, wipe it off
with a soft cloth dampened with
neutral detergent diluted to approx-
imately 1%.
Wring out any excess water from the cloth
and thoroughly wipe off remaining traces
of detergent and water.
■ Shampooing the carpets
Excellent results can be obtained by keep-
ing the carpet as dry as possible. When
cleaning, use a commercially available
foaming-type cleaner.
Use a sponge or brush to apply the foam
and rub it in overlapping circles. Do not use
water. Wipe the surface to remove the
cleaner and dirt and let it dry.
■ Handling the seat belts
Clean with mild soap and lukewarm water
using a cloth or sponge. Also check the
belts periodically for excessive wear, fraying
or cuts.
