- Before bad weather
Check local forecasts. If available, park in a garage before the storm arrives.
- People before property
Follow official warnings. Do not go outside to cover your car during a storm.
- Keep the view clear
Check wipers, defrosters and washer fluid before bad weather.
- Ice? Defrost first
Free frozen blades before operating the wipers.
Follow your vehicle’s manual. No cover guarantees protection.
