Polyamide and cotton clothing is machine-washable on a delicate cycle at 30 degrees. Use BMW Motorrad performance detergent or a liquid laundry detergent for delicate fabrics. Do not use fabric softener. Subsequently rinse thoroughly. After washing, the garment can be spun briefly.
Recommended: wash the outer jacket and the insert separately in a laundry bag each.

After washing, line dry clothing at room temperature. Do not place over a radiator or dry in the sun. Air clothing well at room temperature and store it hanging up on a clothes hanger after having come in from a ride in the rain.
4. Iron

You can iron clothing made of polyamide and cotton on low heat. The fabric’s waterproofing effect can be reactivated by ironing according to the care label. 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.
5. Waterproofing

The outer fabric has been waterproofed in production. Since no waterproofing lasts permanently, we recommend you treat clothing with a BMW Motorrad waterproofing agent for motorcycling clothing after prolonged exposure to rain and after washing.
