Maintenance and Care

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Fjords Axel Power Recliner. This chair is upholstered in Fjords Soft Line Leather (SL-244 Ice).

Soft Line Leather Care

Soft Line Leather is a mid-grade, semi-aniline leather. It is relatively free of marks and is uncorrected, meaning the surface of the hide has not been sanded to remove imperfections. This gives the leather natural variation in grain, and an improved look and feel. The top grain leather has been mechanically stretched and flattened at the tannery for a smoother appearance. Soft Line has a pigment layer on the surface, color matched to exacting standards at the tannery to ensure a high quality, high accuracy product that matches closely to the samples provided. It also has a clear protective layer applied over the pigment layer for protection.

• Regular Cleaning: Dust the leather regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
• Spills: Immediately blot any spills with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub. For stubborn stains, use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for semi-aniline leather, following the product instructions. Test in an inconspicuous area first.
• Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading and drying of the leather.
• Avoid Heat Sources: Keep the chair away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces.
• Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner suitable for semi-aniline leather to keep it supple and prevent cracking.
