• Use Jaguar Leather Cleaner for
heavily soiled areas. Dry off and rub
with a clean soft cloth, changing
surfaces regularly.
When staining (e.g. from clothing) or
spillage occurs, clean the affected area
immediately as described above.
Use Jaguar Leather Cleaner several times
a year to maintain its appearance and
suppleness. The cleaner will nourish and
moisturise and help to improve the
surface protective film against dust and
substances.
• Do not use solvents. Do not use
detergents, furniture polish or
household cleaners. While these
products may initially give impressive
results, their use will lead to rapid
deterioration of the leather and will
invalidate the warranty. Jaguar
recommend a basic set of products
that have been specially selected for
the type of leather in your vehicle.
• Dark clothing may stain leather seats
just like other upholstery products.
• Sharp objects such as belts, zip
fasteners, rivets, etc. can leave
permanent scratches and scratch
marks on the leather surface.
• Unless spillages such as tea, coffee or
ink are washed away immediately,
permanent staining may have to be
accepted.
If a valet service is used, ensure that the
specialist concerned is aware of, and
follows these instructions precisely.
Cloth and fabric
Caution:
• Never use soap, ammonia, bleach
or other cleaners intended for use
on hard surfaces.
• Do not use upholstery cleaner on
electrical equipment such as facia
switches.
• When cleaning around electrical
equipment such as switches,
ensure that fluids do not leak into
any gaps around the components
or between panels or trim.
Use Jaguar Upholstery Cleaner, following
the instructions. Do not over wet.
Removing stains
Most stains on woollen fabric can be
removed if treatment is carried out
immediately, before the stain has a
chance to dry-in.
Most stains can be treated with one of
three cleaning fluids: Jaguar Upholstery
Cleaner, dry cleaning fluid or clean water.
Follow the instructions on the package.
Carpet and mats
Marks or stains can be removed by gentle
scrubbing with a weak solution of soap
and warm water.
For more stubborn stains a commercially
available carpet cleaner should be used.
