- Wood (models P2F and P2FC): Dust with a dry cloth; for dry dirt, use a well-wrung cloth with warm water; for greasy dirt, wipe with a sponge dampened with water and dishwashing liquid, then follow up with a well-wrung cloth dampened in warm water. Do not apply excessive pressure and follow the wood grain direction. Note that heavy pressure or intense rubbing can polish the surface.
Caution! Apply detergent directly onto the wet sponge, never directly onto the furniture piece. - Repairability: B&B Italia supports maintenance, repair, and component replacement through its Customer Service and authorized dealer network whenever technically feasible
