The advantages and disadvantages of a sunroof are as follows: 1. Advantages: Using a sunroof has energy-saving benefits. In the scorching summer, if a car is exposed to the sun for an hour, the interior temperature can easily reach around 70°C. Upon opening the door, a wave of heat rushes in, prompting many to immediately turn on the air conditioning to cool the car down. However, if you have a car with a sunroof, simply opening it allows the negative pressure formed on the roof while driving to extract the hot air, achieving rapid ventilation and cooling. This method is 2-3 times faster than using the car's air conditioning and also saves fuel. 2. Disadvantages: In northern regions with high winds and sand during spring, the sunroof's sliding tracks and gaps often accumulate a significant amount of sand particles. If not cleaned regularly, these can wear down the sunroof's components. It's advisable to frequently clean around the sliding tracks to prevent sand accumulation and extend the lifespan of the sunroof's sealing strips. Generally, every 2-3 months, use gauze soaked in cleaning solution to clean the sealing strips or sliding tracks, then wipe them dry and apply a small amount of engine oil or butter. Before opening the sunroof, ensure there are no obstacles on the roof that might hinder the movement of the glass panel. The sunroof panel is designed to block heat and UV rays; clean it with a soft cloth and a mild detergent, avoiding sticky cleaning agents.
