I too have a NOAH cover for my 2002 9-3 Aero.

From what I have read you can wash them all OK if you adhere to the following advice:

Noah Car Cover Cleaning Instructions
Your new Noah fabric cover may be washed using the large automatic washers WITHOUT the center agitator that are found in most commercial laundromats. Do not use machines with agitators - this can damage the cover and actually cause rips or tears. A home-type washer is not large enough to accommodate the cover and provide proper cleaning.

Use 2 cups of liquid Fantastic All Purpose Cleaner ONLY (not soap or detergent). Wash the cover using "Normal" or "Permanent Press" cycles in cold or warm water. Do not wash in hot water! Run the cover through two rinse cycles-it is most important that all the cleaner be removed in order to preserve the cover's water resistance. Air dry the cover - DO NOT put the cover in an automatic dryer (the fabric can melt). DO NOT dry clean. Another way to clean the dust from either the inside or outside of the cover is to put it on the vehicle and hose it off. To clean the inside, put the cover on the vehicle inside out(this can only be done if you do not have an external antenna). After rinsing off the cover,leave it on the vehicle to dry. Then fold it and return it to the trunk or usual storage place.

If your car is equipped with an outside antenna which will not retract, lay the cover with the inside up on a clean driveway and carefully hose it off. Either leave it on the driveway or place it over the vehicle to dry. Be sure the vehicle is clean before you do this.

If the cover becomes soiled in a few spots, light brushing with a soft rag will remove most dirt. For persistent soils:

Wet the soiled area with water.
Wash with Simple Green All Purpose Cleaner, working the lather into the soiled area using a sponge.
Rinse thoroughly with water to remove all cleaner residue which can cause fabric leakage if left on the cover.
Air dry completely.
If slight fabric leakage occurs due to the presence of residual cleaner, the area may be treated with a water repellent treatment such as Scotch Guard Fabric Protector. Fabric leakage may also be caused by contac with insect repellents and certain types of sprays. If this occurs, the above washing technique will correct the problem.
