VEHICLE CARE
Alcantara
®
Trim
It is recommended that it is cleaned
regularly of any loose debris, dust etc.,
but only by using a soft brush, a dry
cloth or a vacuum cleaner. Then
a slightly moistened white cotton
cloth should then be wiped over the
materal. Do not use any cloths or paper
containing print as this may release
their ink into the material.

Lotus Cars recommends that you view

on this website prior to attempting any
stain removal on your Alcantara
®
trim.
Seat Belt Cleaning
The seat belts may be sponged with
warm water and should be allowed to
air dry naturally before use. Do not use
chemical cleaners and never attempt
to bleach or dye the webbing.
Take care to avoid the ingress
of foreign bodies into the buckle
mechanism that could affect the
functionality of the latch. There is no
provision for disassembly.
The seat belt should be replaced
if the webbing becomes frayed,
contaminated or damaged. Not
checking or maintaining seat belts can
result in them not working properly
when needed. Check all the belts
regularly and have any problem
corrected immediately.
Footwell Cleaning
Use only correctly secured Lotus
approved carpet mats in the footwells.
Floor coverings made from plastic or
other non-breathable materials may
trap moisture and initiate surface
corrosion of the footwell floors.
Sill Trims
Note that the sill trim covers will be
subjected to wear and tear during the
normal course of cabin access and
may require periodic replacement
dependent on the level of use and the
owner’s preference.
Door Lock
It is recommended to periodically
operate the left-hand exterior door key
lock in order to check and maintain
its functionality, should this ever be
required. A special lock spray grease
will maintain smooth and reliable
operation. Be aware that any use of
silicone based general maintenance
sprays can wash out the grease
required for mechanism longevity. Your
Lotus Retailer will be pleased to advise.
