Cleaning fabrics and textiles
If you get a stain on the car's interior, such as on the headlining or seat upholstery, clean it as soon as possible.
These recommendations apply to various interior fabrics.
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.
- Cleaning only spots on the upholstery can leave water rings or other marks.
- Do not remove surface upholstery during cleaning.
- Only use cleaning agents and car care products recommended by Volvo, and follow each product's accompanying instructions.
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.
Clean the area with a neutral-coloured, clean microfibre cloth that is lightly dampened with water or a colourless, mild cleaning agent. Use gentle circular motions.
Let the material dry fully before use.
Important
Cleaning seatbelts
When cleaning a seatbelt, keep it extended until fully dry.
