Maintenance
Regular maintenance will extend the life of your Motoguard XXL garage.
- Cleaning the Cover: Clean the fabric cover periodically with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before closing the garage for extended periods. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

- Ventilation: Ensure the ventilation opening remains clear of debris to allow proper airflow and prevent condensation buildup.
- Anchoring Check: Periodically verify that the anchoring (pegs or screws) remains secure, especially after strong winds.
