Do not use cleaning solvents, bleach or dye on the vehicle’s
safety belts, as these actions may weaken the belt webbing.

LEATHER SEATS

Your vehicle is equipped with seating covered in premium, top-grain
Frau

௡ leather which is extremely durable, but still requires special care

and maintenance in order to ensure longevity and comfort.

Regular cleaning and conditioning will maintain the appearance of the
leather. Failure to care for the leather can result in drying out and fading
of the material.

Cleaning

For dirt, use a vacuum cleaner then use a clean, damp cloth or soft
brush.
• Clean spills immediately.
• Soak a soft cloth with distilled water and neutral soap, then wring out

before use.

• Do not use household cleaning products, alcohol solutions, solvents or

cleaners intended for rubber, vinyl or plastics.

Allow the area to dry, then apply conditioner.

Scratches

In order to lessen the appearance of certain scratches and other wear
marks, apply conditioner on the affected area following the same
instructions as in the Conditioning section.

Conditioning

Use only premium leather conditioner.
• Apply your first conditioning treatment within six months of taking

delivery of your vehicle. Condition twice yearly in order to replenish
lost oils and revitalize the aroma, suppleness and resilience of the
leather.

• Clean the surfaces using the steps outlined under Cleaning in this

section.

• Ensure the leather is dry then apply a nickel-sized amount of

conditioner to a clean, dry cloth

• Rub the conditioner into leather until it disappears. Allow the

conditioner to dry and repeat the process for the entire interior. If a
film appears, wipe off film with a dry, clean cloth.
