For easier installation, the top should be installed at a temperature above

It is normal for the fabric to contract and wrinkle when stored in the ship-
ping carton. Within a few days after installation, the fabric will relax and the
wrinkles will disappear.
Safety glasses should be worn at all
times when installing this product.
