steam jets over 140

age may occur.

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. Fol-
low 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.

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, fre-
quently clean the leather of dust using a cloth or
vacuum cleaner.
In particular, ensure that light-colored leather is
cleaned regularly as it has a tendency to soil
more easily.
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 rea-
sons and can be removed by vacuuming
repeatedly.

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.

Interior sensors / cameras

To clean interior sensors and cameras, use a
lint-free cloth moistened with glass cleaner.

Displays

To clean the displays, e.g. of the radio or instru-
ment cluster, use a display cleaning cloth or a
soft, non-abrasive, lint-free cloth.

Avoid applying excessive pressure when
cleaning the displays, otherwise damage

may occur.

Do not use chemical or abrasive house-
hold cleaning agents. Keep all types of

fluid away from the device. Otherwise, surfaces
or electrical components may be corroded or
damaged.
