Advice on care

warranty and maintenance record.
Fabric roof
Before washing the fabric, remove as
much dirt as possible using a soft brush or
a
vacuum cleaner.
To avoid damaging the roof:
-

n
ever use a high-pressure washer,
-

n
ever clean your vehicle in an
automatic roller-brush car wash.
Allow the vehicle to dry in the shade and
avoid exposing it to direct sunlight.
To remove stains, dab them (never rub
them) with a
sponge and some soapy
water, then immediately rinse the fabric
with clean water.
Immediately remove bird droppings or
plant resins, their caustic nature could
damage the fabric. For regular care of the fabric and to keep
its original appearance, we recommend
using the environmentally friendly product

"TECHNATURE" range. To obtain this
product, visit a


PEUGEOT dealer.

stain removers, solvents, alcohol, petrol,…
to clean the fabric.
To waterproof the fabric, use only
waterproofing products specifically for
fabric hoods.
