Installation Instructions: 1. **Preparation:** - Clean the surface of your vehicle’s window frames thoroughly using a mild detergent and water to remove dirt, grease, or debris. Dry completely with a clean cloth. - Test-fit the deflectors on each window to ensure proper alignment before proceeding. 2. **Adhesive Preparation:** - For adhesive-backed deflectors, peel off a small portion of the protective film on the tape to prepare for application. 3. **Attach the Deflectors:** - Align the deflector with the window frame, starting from one end, and gradually peel away the adhesive backing as you press the deflector into place. - Apply even pressure along the edges to ensure a secure bond. 4. **Final Check:** - Allow the adhesive to cure for at least 24 hours before operating the windows to ensure a secure fit. Maintenance Tips: - **Cleaning:** - Clean the rain guards regularly with mild soap and water to maintain their clarity and appearance. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that can damage the surface. - **Inspection:** - Periodically check the adhesive or in-channel fit to ensure the deflectors remain secure, especially after exposure to extreme weather or car washes. - **Avoid Pressure Washers:** - When using a car wash, avoid spraying high-pressure water directly at the edges of the deflectors to prevent accidental loosening. - **Storage:** - If removing the deflectors temporarily, store them flat in a clean, dry place to prevent warping or damage.
