To maintain a dust-free environment for both floor rugs and upholstery, we recommend that you vacuum the leather regularly, using only light power or a hand-held vacuum. Please use only soft brush attachments. Please also ensure that you use the vacuum in the same direction as the hair.
For spot cleaning, remove any excess spillage as soon as possible with blotting paper or a dry, soft cloth. If there is still a mark, make a solution of water and neutral soap (4%) and lightly rub the stain with a soft cloth. Please ensure that you rub in the same direction as the hair. DO NOT WET THE AREA – just dampen the cloth in the solution.
Do not use any other household or industrial cleaning products on this leather.
As with all upholstery maintenance, please ensure that you test any liquid solution in an unobtrusive area before applying to the affected area.
Deterioration arising from incorrect or inadequate maintenance are not considered faults in the leather and will void any warranty.
