Advice on care
In order to preserve the properties of the 
glazed  roof,   we   recommend   wiping   or   cleaning  
t
he   inner   glass   using   a   clean,   soft   and   dry 
cloth.
For
  stubborn   stains,   the   glass   should   be  
c
leaned   using   screenwash   fluid,   rinsed   with  
c
lean   water,   then   dried   with   a   clean,   soft   cloth.
Do not use soapy water, abrasive 
products,

s
olutions   with   a   high   concentration   of  
a
