(due to drops from shoes, umbrellas, etc.), as this could
cause the sheet metal to rust.

CONTENTS
Never use flammable products, such as
petroleum ether or modified petrol, to
clean inside the car. The electrostatic charges
which are generated by rubbing during cleaning
may cause a fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol cans in the vehicle:
these could explode. Aerosol cans must
not be exposed to temperatures exceeding 50°C.
When the vehicle is exposed to sunlight, the tem-
perature inside can greatly exceed this value.
WARNING
SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner. It is
advisable to use a damp brush on velvet upholstery.
Wipe the seats with a sponge soaked in a solution of mild
detergent and water.
The fabric upholstery of your car is designed
to withstand normal wear and tear for
a long time. Some precautions are needed
though. Avoid prolonged and/or excessive rubbing
against clothing accessories such as metal buckles
and Velcro strips which, by applying a high pressure
on the fabric in a small area, could cause some
threads to break, thereby damaging the upholstery.
