CARE & MAINTENANCE
 Here are some suggestions on how to care for and maintain the beauty of your cap finish.
- Wash the cover frequently, preferably by hand. Avoid car washes with brushes. During the first 30 days of the life of the paint, the paint is completing the curing process and can be easily damaged. When washing use a soft cloth, fresh cool water in the summer and warm water in the winter. For heavily soiled surfaces use a mild liquid soap specially designed for automobiles.
- Avoid parking under trees, which can drop sap or droppings on the paint. Remove any such substance as soon as possible.
- Do not wax for the first 60 days. After 60 days, wax and care for the cover like your truck, using the same products.
- Do not wipe your cover with a dry cloth. Always use water. If you have hard water, dry the cover and truck paint after washing to prevent water spots.
- Brush off snow and ice. Do not use a scraper on your Truck Lidz cover.
- Use touch-up paint to repair any nicks or scratches in the paint. Clear fingernail polish may be used as the base coat touch-up. Wait until the repair is fully cured and use a rubbing compound and polish to regain the proper finish.
- Lubricate all locks and moving locking parts with lithium grease. Lithium-based spray lubricants are well suited to this application and will not attract dirt and grime buildup. Do not use penetrating oils in the lock cylinders unless you follow up with lithium grease.
- For repairs, service, parts, or adjustments go to your nearest Truck Lidz dealers.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION TO REMEMBER
Never allow children to occupy the cargo area of the pickup when the engine is running. Exhaust systems can fail and carbon monoxide poisoning may occur. Never allow persons or pets to become enclosed in the pickup cargo area, under the Truck Lidz cover. Consult your vehicle owner's manual regarding the proper loading of your vehicle.
The fasteners/mounting clamps connecting the cover to the pickup bed should be checked regularly to assure tightness. Vibration from the engine and road can cause fasteners/mounting clamps to work loose over time.
Be sure to keep your shocks and tires in good repair to reduce vibration, which may shorten the life of your truck and Truck Lidz cover.
