Cleaning leather and vinyl
Clean and treat the leather and vinyl in your car regularly. This helps make it more resistant to damage from dirt and coloured garments.
These leather cleaning recommendations only apply to real leather details.
Important
When cleaning upholstery
- Never scrape or rub dirty surfaces. Instead, use gentle circular motions. Remember that sharp objects or abrasive materials can damage the car.
- Do not use a steam cleaner on leather.
- Do not remove surface upholstery during cleaning.
- Do not use leather and vinyl cleaner on textile surfaces.
- Only use cleaning agents and car care products recommended by Volvo, and follow each product's accompanying instructions. Contact Volvo support for more information.
Warning
Seats with side airbags
Never spray a cleaning agent directly on the sides of seats with side airbags. Instead, wipe them clean with a cloth lightly dampened with a suitable cleaning agent.
- Vacuum clean or dust off the area to remove loose dust and dirt.
- Use a neutral-coloured, clean micro fibre cloth lightly dampened with cleaning agent and clean the area with gentle circular motions.
- Let the upholstery dry fully before further use or applying any treatments.
