Cotton products
Trousers, jackets, T-shirts: BMW Motorrad offers numerous textile products made of cotton. They are usually machine-washable at 40 degrees, however, always check the printed care label in your product to be on the safe side. Here are some step-by-step instructions on how to care for your textiles.
1. Preparation
1. Preparation
Remove protectors prior to washing and close all zips, hook and loop fasteners as well as press studs. Turn clothing inside out.
2. Cleaning and washing
2. Cleaning and washing
Wash clothing in the washing machine with BMW Motorrad performance detergent or use a commercially available laundry detergent for delicate fabrics. Select a delicate cycle and wash with similar colours. Please do not use fabric softener and rinse thoroughly. After washing, the garment can be spun briefly.
3. Drying
3. Drying
Line dry at room temperature after washing. Do not place on a radiator or dry in the sun – this also applies after prolonged exposure to rain.
4. Iron
4. Iron
You can iron cotton textiles. We would even recommended it, as the fabric’s waterproofing effect can be reactivated by ironing according to the care label. Please note: do not iron hard plastic parts, reflective print or hook and loop fasteners. Place a cotton towel between iron and clothing to protect delicate parts and accessories.
