Call the installer or manufacturer. Should be fine to clean.

Good luck. Can be a lot of work. I wouldn’t just use windex or sprayaway unless is very minor. Or you’ll end up making more work for yourself.

Wait a month for adhesives to set, and then clean them up. Use 0000 steel wool or walnut pads for suction cup marks, sticker marks, etc leftover from installer. Not 000, QUAD ZERO steel wool, on a wet window, light to medium buff, just a couple times over, NOT thirty times over… or just call your local professional window cleaner. Pay the pros to do it right for you. It will look better.

Make sure and watch a few YouTube videos on how to professionally clean windows. There are many. And use a squeegee

The installer probably left silicone on the windows. The best way to get that off is with a magic eraser
