whenever possible.
Special Care for Canvas Top and
Plastic Windows
Your canvas top should be cleaned often. If you use an
automatic car wash, use one with water jets and hanging
cloths. High pressure car washes may cause water to
enter your vehicle.
When you hand wash the top, do it in partial shade.
Use a mild soap, lukewarm water and a soft sponge. A
chamois or cloth may leave lint on the top, and a brush
can chafe the threads in the top fabric. Don't use
detergents, harsh cleaners, solvents or bleaching agents.
Wet the entire vehicle and wash the top evenly to avoid
spots or rings. Let the soap remain on the fabric for a
few minutes. When the top is really dirty, use a mild
foam
-type cleaner. Thoroughly rinse the entire vehicle,
then let the top dry in direct sunlight.
To protect the canvas top:
After you wash the vehicle, make sure the top is
completely dry before you open or remove it.Don't get any vinyl cleaner on the vehicle's painted
finish; it could leave streaks.
If you decide to go through an automatic car wash,
ask the manager if the equipment could damage
your top.
The plastic windows are pliable and can be scratched if
you don't take these precautions when you clean them:
Wipe off dust with a soft cotton cloth moistened with
clean, cool or lukewarm water. Don't use a ªdryº
cloth. Wipe in one direction only, not back and forth.
To remove frost, snow or ice, use lukewarm water.
Don't use a scraper or any de
-icing fluids.
Wash the windows with a soft cloth and clean, cool
or lukewarm water. Never use a dry cloth, hot water,
strong soap or detergent, solvents or harsh cleaning
agents. Rinse thoroughly and wipe with a slightly
moist soft, clean cloth.
Don't put any labels, stickers or tape on windows.
It's hard to remove adhesives left on the window
when such items are removed. If a sticker or label
must be removed, remove any adhesive left on the
window while the adhesive is still soft and sticky.
Press on a new sticker or piece of tape and then lift it
off again; keep doing this until all the adhesive lifts
off with the sticker or tape.
