Maintenance and care
How should I clean and maintain my roof box to keep it in good condition?
To keep your Tesla roof box in top condition, you should follow these steps:
- Regular cleaning: Wash your roof box regularly with a mild soap solution and warm water. Use a soft brush or sponge to remove dirt and stains. Avoid strong chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the surface.
- Rinse thoroughly: Make sure to rinse the roof box thoroughly after washing to remove any soap residue.
- Dry thoroughly: After cleaning and rinsing, dry the roof box thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth or towel. Make sure it is completely dry before storing it.
- Check locks and hinges: Regularly check the locks and hinges of your roof box. Lubricate them with silicone-based lubricant if they seem sluggish or if there is a problem.
- Store in the shade: If possible, store your roof box in the shade or in a cool, dry place when not in use. Direct sunlight and high temperatures can affect the life of the material.
