Maintenance 7-21
Vehicle care
Valet kit
A valet kit containing a selection of Car
Care products is available from the Jaguar
accessory range.
Interior care
Brush and clean the interior regularly.
Use a vacuum cleaner where possible to
remove all dust from the interior and
trim.
Carpets
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.
See your Jaguar Dealer for advice.
Headlining
Remove dust in the headlining with a
vacuum cleaner. To remove stains, dab
gently without pressing, using a fluff-free
white cloth, moistened with Jaguar
Upholstery Cleaner.
Do not use methylated spirit or solvents
as this may cause damage or
discoloration to the headlining.
Leather upholstery
Dust and dirt can penetrate the pores and
creases of leather, causing surface wear
and brittleness.
Use only mild non-caustic soap.
Clean regularly, every two to three
months, with natural materials to
maintain the leather in first class
condition.
Wipe the surfaces using a cloth which has
been dampened with warm soapy water
and then wrung out; avoid over-wetting.
Dry off and rub with a clean soft cloth,
changing surfaces regularly. Use Jaguar
Leather Cleaner for heavily soiled areas.
Note: Do not use solvents such as petrol
(gasoline), white spirit or alcohol. Do not
use detergents, furniture polish or
household cleaners. Although such
treatments may give, initially, an
impressive appearance, their use will lead
to rapid damage or deterioration of the
leather, and will not be covered by the
Manufacturer’s Warranty. Unless spillages
of tea, coffee or ink are washed away
immediately, permanent staining may
have to be accepted.
If a valeting service is used, ensure that
the specialist firm concerned are aware
of, and follow these instructions
precisely.
Cloth upholstery
Weekly light vacuuming can extend the
life of the fabric.
Using Jaguar Upholstery Cleaner,
following the instructions, will preserve
and enhance cloth upholstery. Test the
upholstery cleaner solution on an unseen
part of the seat. Do not over wet.
Caution:
1. Never use soap, ammonia, bleach
or other cleaners intended for use
on hard surfaces.
2. Do not use upholstery cleaner on
electrical equipment such as fascia
switches.
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’.
Keep the necessary cleaning materials in
a convenient place.
Most stains can be treated with one of
three cleaning fluids: Jaguar Upholstery
Cleaner, dry cleaning fluid or clean water.
