Panoramic glazed sunroof
This glazed roof provides increased visibility
and light in the passenger compartment, while
maintaining normal temperatures thanks to its
"high thermal protection" coating.
Advice on care
In order to preser ve the properties of the
glazed roof, we recommend wiping or cleaning
the inner glass using a clean, soft and dry
cloth.
For stubborn stains, the glass should be
cleaned using screenwash fluid, rinsed with
clean water, then dried with a clean, soft cloth.
Do not use soapy water, abrasive
products, detergents (particularly those
with an ammonia base), solvents,
solutions with a high concentration of
alcohol, petrol, etc.
