Vehicle care Car care products BMW recommends using cleaning and care products from BMW, since these have been tested and approved.
Car care and cleaning products Follow the instructions on the container. When cleaning the interior, open the doors or windows. Only use products intended for cleaning vehi‐ cles. Cleansers can contain substances that are dan‐ gerous and harmful to your health.◀
Vehicle paint Regular care contributes to driving safety and value retention. Environmental influences in areas with elevated air pollution or natural con‐ taminants, such as tree resin or pollen can affect the vehicle's paintwork. Tailor the frequency and extent of your car care to these influences. Aggressive substances such as spilled fuel, oil, grease or bird droppings must be removed im‐ mediately to prevent the finish from being al‐ tered or discolored. Leather care Remove dust from the leather often, using a cloth or vacuum cleaner. Otherwise, particles of dust and road grime chafe in pores and folds, and lead to increased wear and premature degradation of the leather surface. To guard against discoloration, such as from clothing, provide leather care roughly every two months.
224
Online Edition for Part no. 01 40 2 903 008 - 07 12 490
Clean light-colored leather more frequently be‐ cause soiling on such surfaces is substantially more visible. Use leather care products; otherwise, dirt and grease will gradually break down the protective layer of the leather surface. Suitable care products are available from the service center. Upholstery material care Vacuum regularly with a vacuum cleaner. If they are very dirty, e.g., beverage stains, use a soft sponge or microfiber cloth with a suitable interior cleaner. Clean the upholstery down to the seams using large sweeping motions. Avoid rubbing the ma‐ terial vigorously.
Damage from Velcro® fasteners Open Velcro® fasteners on pants or other articles of clothing can damage the seat covers. Ensure that any Velcro® fasteners are closed.◀
Caring for special components Light-alloy wheels Use wheel cleaner, particularly during the winter months. Do not use aggressive, acidic, strongly alkaline or abrasive cleaners, or steam jets above 140 ℉/60 ℃; follow the manufacturer's instructions. Chrome surfaces Carefully clean components such as the radiator grille or door handles with an ample supply of water, possibly with shampoo added, particu‐ larly when they have been exposed to road salt. Rubber components Aside from water, treat only with rubber cleans‐ ers. When cleaning rubber seals, do not use any sil‐ icon-containing car care products in order to avoid damage or reduced noise damping.
