From time to time check that water has not collected under the mats (from dripping shoes, umbrellas etc.) which could cause the steel to rust.
Never use inflammable products such as petroleum ether or petrol to clean
inside the vehicle. The electrostatic charges that are generated while rubbing to
clean could become a fire risk.
CLEANING SEATS AND FABRICS
– Remove dust with a soft brush and vacuum cleaner.
– Brush the seats with a damp sponge with water and a neutral soap.
PLASTIC PARTS INSIDE THE VEHICLE
Use appropriate products designed to preserve the appearance of components.
IMPORTANT
Do not use alcohol or petrol to clean the instrument panel.
Do not keep aerosol cans in the vehicle. There is the risk they might explode.
Aerosol cans must never be exposed to a temperature above 50°C; when the weather starts to get hot the temperature inside the vehicle might go well beyond that figure.
STEERING WHEEL / GEAR LEVER KNOB WITH GENUINE LEATHER COVERING
These components shall only be cleaned with water and neutral soap.

If when cleaning the windscreen with special 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.
