Watch the roof mattress

We have had the Cali for a couple of weeks now and I am beginning to realise there are a number of unwritten 'dos and don'ts'.
Hope the following helps other newbies - decided to wash the van and noticed to my horror the elevating roof was not seated properly at the rear of the vehicle (about 1/2" gap from the main roof).
Drove quickly to the dealers expecting the worst. The problem was down to the roof mattress (which still has the polythene cover fitted) sliding to the back when the roof was last elevated and consequently stopping the roof fully retracting. The control panel gave the closed roof a tick so I was completely unaware.
Fortunately no damage done - felt both stupid and relieved in equal measure.
 
Thanks - I sense a checklist might end up with 3 sections
- what to do before collection
- handover check list
- what to do / be aware of for first trip...
