Upholstery
Using aftermarket seat covers or wearing clothing that
have the tendency to give off coloring (e.g. when wet
etc.) may cause the upholstery to become permanently
discolored. By lining the seats with a proper
intermediate cover, contact discoloration will be
prevented.
Leather Upholstery
Wipe leather upholstery with a damp cloth and dry
thoroughly or clean with a leather care product.
Exercise particular care when cleaning perforated
leather as its underside should not become wet.
Cloth Upholstery
Clean with soft bristle brush, or use a dry-shampoo
cleaner in case of excessive dirt.
Tex Upholstery
Pour an interior care product onto soft lint-free cloth
and apply with light pressure.
Hard Plastic Trim Items
Pour an interior care product onto soft lint-free cloth
and apply with light pressure.
Plastic and Rubber Parts
Do not use oil or wax on these parts.
Do not use any caustic or alcohol-based or solvent-
based substances to clean plastic surfaces.
Avoid the use of stain removers, iodine tincture, nail
varnish and nail varnish remover, acetone, methylated
spirits, chlorine or ammonium-based cleaning agents,
cleaning agents containing abrasive substances.
ELECTRICAL FUSES

filament.

column lock to the 0 position and switch off the

NOTE: Fuses must not be bridged. Replace fuses with
specified rated current. Only replace fuses when the
cause of the malfunction has been rectified.

the underside of the ignition column, refer to "Fuses
