Clean it with a mild soap solution good for upholstery and carpets. Remove fresh spots immediately with a fabric spot cleaner. To keep the fabric looking clean and fresh, take care of it. Otherwise its color will be affected, it can be stained easily, and its fire-resistance may be reduced. To dry away any water, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. CAUTION Sharp or pointed metal objects can damage the suede beyond repair. Piano black panel The center panel and door switch panels have been treated with a special coating that resists scratching. When the panel needs to be cleaned, use a soft cloth to wipe off dirt from the surface. NOTE CAUTION Use only recommended cleaners and procedures. Others may affect appearance and fire-resistance. Suede-like material* Stains which are not treated immediately will be difficult to remove later, and may cause fading or discoloration. Remove stains as soon as possible. To clean, wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Then buff with a soft, dry cloth. If stains cannot be removed, using plain water, try wiping with soapy water or a mild detergent. Scratches or nicks on the center and door switch panels resulting from the use of a hard brush or cloth may not be repairable. CAUTION Don't clean the suede with leather cleaner, a detergent, or soap. It will cause discoloration. *Some models. 8-45 Form No. 8R65-EA-03C
