Cleaning the Convertible Top
The convertible top should be
cleaned often. High pressure car
washes may cause water to enter
the vehicle.
Hand wash the convertible top in
the 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. Do not 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 very
dirty, use a mild foam-type cleaner.
Thoroughly rinse, then let the top
dry in direct sunlight.
To protect the convertible top.
.After washing, the top must be
completely dry before lowering.
.Do not get any cleaner on the
painted finish; it could leave
streaks.
.Before going through an
automatic car wash, find out if
the equipment could damage the
convertible top.
