Windshield And Wiper Blades; Removable Roof Panel - Chevrolet 2008 Corvette Owner's Manual

Windshield and Wiper Blades

Clean the outside of the windshield with glass cleaner.
Clean the rubber blades using a lint free cloth or
paper towel soaked with windshield washer fluid or a
mild detergent. Wash the windshield thoroughly
when cleaning the blades. Bugs, road grime, sap, and a
buildup of vehicle wash/wax treatments may cause
wiper streaking. Replace the wiper blades if they are
worn or damaged.
Wipers can be damaged by:
•
Extreme dusty conditions
•
Sand and salt
•
Heat and sun
•
Snow and ice, without proper removal

Removable Roof Panel

Notice: If you use a glass treatment and/or
conditioner that contains ethyl alcohol or ethyl
sulfate on the roof panel, you could damage
the panel. The repairs would not be covered by your
warranty. Only use a GM-approved glass cleaner
on the roof panel.
Special care is necessary when cleaning, removing,
and/or storing the roof panel.
•
Flush with water to remove dust and dirt, then dry
the panel.
•
Clean a transparent roof panel with GM Glass
Cleaner. Leave the cleaner on the panel for
one minute, then wipe the panel with a soft, lint-free
cloth. Do not use glass cleaner on a painted roof
panel.
•
Do not use abrasive cleaning materials on either
type of panel.
If water drops are frequently allowed to dry on the roof
panel, impurities in the water will adhere to the top.
These impurities may etch or mar the finish. When the
panel gets wet, dry it off.
