Soap and water. I use dish detergent or Simple Green - nothing abrasive.
If memory serves, there's a care tag sewn into it.

Raggtopp is environmentally safe, spray on application, scrub lightly with a brush and let stand before rinse. Raggtopp is safe for paint, though I'm not sure if the same can be said of Comet - not to mention the gritty, abrasive powder that is difficult to rinse 100%.

If the top material is vinyl (rather than canvas/fabric), you should give it a good coating of Nu-Vinyl or Mequiar's polymer protectant for plastics, once you've got it clean and dry. That coating will keep loose dirt from imbedding in the surface, prevent UV damage, and make it clean up without scrubbing in the future. Just re-coat it about once a month after washing the car.

Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. No toxic anything, and available wherever groceries are sold.

Raggtop and 303 both offer a two step package made for either a vinyl or fabric convertible roof. They both are designed not only to work well, but ok for the environment also. The first part is a cleaner, and the second part is a protectant. Easy to use, and great results.
