For ease of use, you have a suitable ladder in your vehicle. We have summarised the most important information on use for you here:
Use of the access ladder

Care and cleaning
Here we have summarised some tips for the care and cleaning of your pop-top roof:
- Only close the pop-top roof when the canvas material is dry. If the pop-top roof needs to be closed with damp canvas material: Open the pop-top roof again as quickly as possible and allow the canvas material to dry completely.
- We recommend impregnating the pop-top roof every 2 years or so. You can obtain suitable products from your dealer or specialist retailer.
- Stains on the canvas material of the pop-top roof can be wiped off with a soft, damp cloth.
