Volvo XC90: Maintenance and service / Cleaning leather upholstery
(Option/accessory.)
Use cleaning agents and car care products recommended by Volvo. Clean regularly
and treat stains immediately. It is important to vacuum before using a cleaning
agent.
Volvo's leather upholstery* is treated to protect its original appearance. Over
time, sunlight, grease, dirt, etc. could break down the protective layer. This could
result in scratches and cracking.
Leather upholstery* is a natural product that changes and acquires a beautiful
patina over time. Regular cleaning and treatments are required to preserve the qualities
and color of the leather. Volvo offers a comprehensive product, Volvo Leather Care
KitWipes, for cleaning and treating leather upholstery. When used as directed, it
helps preserve the leather's protective coating.
For optimal results, Volvo recommends cleaning and applying protective cream
one to four times a year (or more often as needed). Volvo Leather Care Kit 951 0251
and Volvo Leather Softener 943 7429 are available for purchase at Volvo retailers.
Cleaning the leather upholstery
- Apply the leather cleaner to a damp sponge and squeeze it until the cleaner
foams.
- Move the sponge in circular motions to apply the foam to the stain.
- Dampen the stain thoroughly with the sponge. Let the sponge absorb the stain
and do not rub.
- Dry the stain using a soft towel and let the leather dry completely.
Protecting the leather upholstery
- Apply a small amount of leather protector to a cloth and then apply the
protector to the leather using light circular movements.
- Let it dry for approximately 20 minutes.
- Protecting the leather upholstery makes it better able to withstand
sunlight's harmful UV rays.
