Instructions for Cleaning Car Carpets

Model: Volkswagen Jetta MK 5, A5 - Years 2005-2010
Part: Checks and maintenance

Cleaning the interior carpet of the vehicle should be done at least once a year to prevent it from becoming too dirty, making it difficult to remove stains later (better yet, prevent it from getting dirty by using specially shaped rubber mats with raised edges). First, purchase a good carpet cleaner (either ready-to-use or concentrated to dilute as needed), spray it evenly over the entire carpet, and scrub with a bristle brush until all stains are removed. Then, dry with a suitable liquid vacuum: it is essential to ensure the carpet is completely dry before replacing the mats.
