Rinsing Be sure to remove all traces of cleaner by rinsing
the top thoroughly with clean water. Remember to allow
the top to dry before lowering it.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions may cause interior
water damage, stains or mildew on the top material:
Avoid high-pressure car washes, as they can damage
the top material. Also, increased water pressure may
force past the weather strips.
It is recommended that the top be free of water prior
to opening it. Operating the top, opening a door or
lowering a window while the top is wet may allow
water to drip into the vehicle’s interior.
Use care when washing the vehicle, water pressure
directed at the weather strip seals may cause water to
leak into the vehicle’s interior.
Careless handling and storage of the removable roof
panels may damage the seals, causing water to leak
into the vehicle’s interior.
The front panel(s) must be positioned properly to
ensure sealing. Improper installation can cause water
to leak into the vehicle’s interior.
Care Of Fabric Top Windows
Your vehicle’s fabric top has pliable plastic windows which

microfiber towel or soft cotton cloth moistened with

Cleaner or equivalent will safely clean all plastic win-
dows without scratching. It removes fine scratches to
improve visibility and provides UV protection to help
prevent yellowing.
2. When washing, never use hot water or anything stron-

or harsh cleaning agents.
3. Always rinse thoroughly with cold water, then wipe
with a soft and slightly moist, clean cloth.
4. When removing frost, snow or ice, never use a scraper
or de-icing chemicals. Use warm water only if you must
clean the window quickly.
5. Debris (sand, mud/dirt, dust, or salt) from off-road
driving will have a major impact on zipper operation.
Even normal on-road driving and vehicle washing will
