removed promptly with a damp cloth.
Stubborn soils stains can be removed
easily with a soft cloth and appropriate
products. Avoid soaking the leather
upholstery with any liquid. Please do
not use polishes, oils, cleaning fluids,
solvents, detergents, or ammonia-based
cleaners to clean your leather upholstery.

Check at regular intervals that there is
no water trapped under the mats (due
to drips off shoes, umbrellas etc.) which
may cause the metal parts to oxidize.
