Setup and Installation
Installing your sun visor is a straightforward process designed for quick and easy use.
- Unfold the Visor: Remove the sun visor from its storage bag. It will naturally spring open due to its memory skeleton design.

Operating Instructions
The sun visor is designed for passive operation, effectively blocking sunlight and heat when properly installed.
- Heat Reflection: The silver side of the sun visor is engineered to reflect solar radiation away from your car's interior, preventing heat buildup.
- UV Protection: By reflecting UV rays, the sun visor helps protect your dashboard, upholstery, and other interior components from sun damage, fading, and cracking over time.
- Cooling Effect: The insulation provided by the sun visor helps to keep the interior and seats cooler, significantly shortening the time required for your car's air conditioning to cool the cabin.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and effectiveness of your sun visor, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: If the sun visor becomes dirty, gently wipe it with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the reflective surface or fabric.
- Drying: Allow the sun visor to air dry completely before folding and storing it to prevent mildew or odors.
- Storage: When not in use, fold the sun visor and place it in the provided storage bag. This protects it from dust and damage, and keeps it compact for easy storage.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Sun visor does not fit windshield perfectly. | Incorrect positioning or insufficient adjustment. | Ensure the sun visor is centered and fully expanded. Overlap the two circular sections as needed to cover the entire windshield. Lower car's sun visors to secure. |
| Sun visor falls or shifts after installation. | Not properly secured by car's sun visors. | Make sure your car's built-in sun visors are lowered and pressing firmly against the product to hold it in place. |
| Interior of car still feels hot. | Partial coverage or extreme ambient temperatures. | Verify the sun visor covers the entire windshield without gaps. While the product significantly reduces heat, it may not completely eliminate it in extreme conditions. Ensure the silver side faces outwards. |
| Sun visor is difficult to fold. | Incorrect folding technique. | Refer to the "Folding method" diagram (Figure 6) in the Maintenance section for the correct technique. The memory skeleton allows for easy twisting and collapsing. |
