The functions of a car sunroof: 1. Change the traditional ventilation method; 2. Prevent exhaust gas from entering the car; 3. Reduce wind noise; 4. Quickly lower the temperature inside the car; 5. Quickly remove fog inside the car; 6. Can broaden the field of vision. Car sunroofs are divided into: sliding-out type, built-in type, built-in flip-out type, panoramic type, and curtain type. Maintenance methods for car sunroofs: 1. Regularly clean with fine talcum powder; 2. Clean dust in the sliding tracks and gaps of the sealing strips; 3. Wash with a soft cloth and cleaning agent, do not use sticky cleaning agents; 4. Spray a small amount of plastic protectant or talcum powder on the sealing strip components; 5. After snow or car washing, open the sunroof and dry the residual water on the edges; 6. The frequency of sunroof use should not be too high.
After driving for so many years, I'm most satisfied with the ventilation effect of the sunroof. When driving long distances on highways, opening the side windows creates too much wind noise, but the sunroof is just perfect – the rear-tilt ventilation quickly removes stale air from the cabin without messing up your hair. On rainy days, cracking it open slightly for air exchange keeps rainwater out and reduces windshield fogging. Once when I took friends stargazing at night, the panoramic sunroof instantly transformed into a mobile observation deck. During summer when parked outdoors under scorching sun, opening the sunroof first to release heat before turning on the AC doubles cooling efficiency. Just remember to clear debris from the tracks annually, otherwise clogged drainage holes could lead to troublesome leaks.
