6. MAINTENANCE AND CARE
6.1 Cleaning
The material can be cleaned with hand-hot water and mild detergent.
Use a sponge or soft brush for this. Rinse well with clear water. If
necessary, re-impregnate using commercially available spray. New
sunshades can let through a light spray in strong rain. This stops after
a few days.
6.2 Frame
The frame parts can be wiped with water. The coating paints can be
freshened up with a car polish. Paint damage can be repaired with the
paint repair set available from GLATZ.
6.3 Sunshade Tension
A well spanned sunshade is more stable in the wind and looks good
for longer. If necessary, the roof strut extensions (1) can be infinitely
adjusted. This is easiest when the sunshade is half closed.

1. Loosen the threaded screw b)
2. Adjust the strut extension profile a)
3. Tighten the headless screw b)
6.4 Winter Storage
Store sunshade in a dry place, protected from dust.
Before putting back into use, check its condition and test for perfect
functioning.
If possible, before winter storage, protect loosened screws and nuts of
the struts with a resoluble glue (e.g. Loctite 243).
