MAINTENANCE

INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS

For routine cleaning of interior plastic

parts use a soft cloth moistened with wa-

ter and neutral soap. Remove grease or

persisting stains using appropriate solvent-

free products designed to preserve ap-

pearance and colour of plastic compo-

nents.

IMPORTANT Never use spirit or petro-

leum to clean the instrument panel.

Upholstery of your car has

been designed to withstand

wear deriving from common

use of the car. You are how-

ever recommended to avoid strong

and/or continuous scratching with

clothing accessories such as metallic

buckles, studs, Velcro fastenings and

the like, since these items cause cir-

cumscribed stress of the cover fabric

that could lead to yarn breaking, and

damage the cover as a consequence.

STEERING WHEEL/GEAR LEVER

KNOB WITH GENUINE

LEATHER COVERING

These components shall only be cleaned

with water and neutral soap. Never use

spirit or alcohol-based products. 

Before using special products for clean-

ing interiors, read carefully label instruc-

tions and indications to make sure they

are free from spirit and/or alcohol-based

substances. 

If when cleaning the windscreen with spe-

cial glass products, some drops fall on the

leather covering of the steering wheel/gear

lever knob remove them immediately and

then clean with water and neutral soap.

IMPORTANT Take the utmost care when

engaging the steering lock to prevent

scratching the leather covering.
