STEP 1

Open the trunk lid at the rear of the car. (If AirShroud is not cur-
rently stored inside the trunk, place it inside now with the battery 
compartment facing towards the left.)

STEP 2

Make sure that the adjustable straps are properly hooked in place.

STEP 3

Move the device outwards so that 
it suspends horizontally and firmly 
outside the lower rim of the trunk, 
with its sponge legs resting on the 
side of the car.

HOW TO USE AIRSHROUD

 

PREPARATION OF AIRSHROUD

Before you cover your car, make sure that your car is relatively 
clean. Remove any large organic material like twigs, nuts, leaves; 
large pieces of dirt/dust; dried up bird droppings to avoid it 
scratching on the surface of your car and also contaminate the 
inside of the car cover when operating AirShroud.

The following assumes that you have already prepared your 
device for your car. If you had not yet done so, please read the 
‘Preparation of AirShroud’ section.

 

Attention! 

Make sure that the hooks are firmly hooked  

 

before you try to suspend the device outside to avoid   

 

it from falling and causing injury to your feet, as well as  

 

causing damage to the device.
