Light-alloy wheels For technical reasons, dust is generated during braking that is deposited on the light-alloy wheels. Remove the dust regularly using acidfree rim cleaner. Do not use aggressive, acidic, strongly alkaline and abrasive cleaning agents or steam jets over 1407/606, otherwise damage may occur.< In particular, ensure that light-colored leather is cleaned regularly as it has a tendency to soil more easily. At a glance Reference Mobility Driving tips Controls Treat the leather twice a year using a leather lotion as dirt and grease will gradually attack the leather's protective layer. Carpets / cargo bay You can vacuum the carpets and floor mats or clean them with interior cleaner if heavily soiled. The floor mats can be removed for cleaning. When replacing the mats, ensure that the seat rails do not extend over the floor mats, as this may damage the mats. Lint on the floor mats occurs for technical reasons and can be removed by vacuuming repeatedly. Outside sensors / cameras Keep the sensors and cameras on the outside of the vehicle, e.g. Park Distance Control, clean and free of ice to ensure that they remain fully functional.< Interior care Upholstery / cloth trim Vacuum regularly with a vacuum cleaner to remove superficial dirt. To treat severe stains, e.g. from beverages, use a soft sponge or lint-free microfiber cloth in combination with suitable interior cleaners. Follow the instructions on the packaging. Clean the upholstery down to the seams using a sweeping motion. Avoid strong rubbing.< Opened Velcro fasteners on pants or other articles of clothing can damage the seat covers. Ensure that Velcro fasteners are closed.< Interior plastic parts > Imitation leather surfaces > Lamp glasses > Display pane of instrument cluster > Matt parts Clean with water and solvent-free plastic cleaner if necessary. Fine wood parts Clean fine wood trim and fine wood parts with a damp cloth. Wipe dry with a soft cloth. Safety belts Do not clean with cleaning agents as these may destroy the fabric.< Leather / leather trim The leather used by BMW is a high quality natural product. Slight irregularities in the leather are a typical characteristic of natural leather.< Dust and road grit in the pores and folds of the leather have an abrasive effect, leading to increased wear and causing the leather surface to become brittle prematurely. Therefore, frequently clean the leather of dust using a cloth or vacuum cleaner. Interior sensors / cameras To clean interior sensors and cameras, e.g. of the High-Beam Assistant, use a lint-free cloth moistened with glass cleaner. Displays To clean the displays, e.g. of the radio or instrument cluster, use a display cleaning cloth or a soft, non-abrasive, lint-free cloth. 125 Online Edition for Part no. 01 41 0 014 960 - © 02/08 BMW AG
