It is important that fabrics are cleaned regularly. Most dirt and stains can be cleaned if they are promptly treated. The fabric can be machine washed at a low temperature (less than 100 degrees F) with lukewarm water using a mild soap.
Do not dry in electric or gas dryers and iron the fabric only at a low temperature. Excessive heat will shrink the fabric. Allow to air or line dry. Stain removal: Brush stain lightly, spot clean with warm water and a mild detergent, non-chlorinated bleach or diluted chlorinated bleach. An upholstery spot cleaner may also be effective. Blot the stain with a cloth or a sponge damp with the solution, turning continually so that only the clean part of sponge or cloth is in contact with the stain. NEVER RUB. Never try to remove a stain with household detergents. For large or serious stains, a professional upholstery cleaner is recommended.
