Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine If your vehicle suffers a power loss, such as a dead
battery, you can still raise
the top manually by rotating
the valve in the left side
of the trunk.
Open the trunk and find the tab along the left side trim
panel. Lift up the tab and
turn the valve clockwise to
release the hydraulic pressure. Turn the ignition key to
the LOCK position. You can now raise or lower your top
manually. Be sure to close the valve after installing your
top
so you can raise or lower it electronically later.
6. Pull down on the latches and align hooks with holes.
Push forward on the larger part
of the latch until it
clicks.
Do not force the latch. If it is hard to lock, the
top
is not properly aligned.

6. Connect
the red positive (+) cable to the positive (+)
terminal of the vehicle with the dead battery. Use a
remote positive
(+) terminal if the vehicle has one.
7. Don’t let the other end touch metal. Connect it to the
positive
(+) terminal of the good battery. Use a
remote positive
(+) terminal if the vehicle has one.
But don’t use the junction block on your Chevrolet.
8. Now connect the black negative (-) cable to the good
battery’s negative
(-) terminal.
Don’t let the other end touch
anything until the next
step.
The other end of the negative cable doesn’t go to
the dead battery. It goes to a heavy unpainted metal part
on the engine of the vehicle with the dead battery.
9. Attach the cable at least 18 inches (45 cm) away
from the dead battery, but not near engine parts that
move. The electrical connection is just as good
there, but the chance of sparks getting back to the
battery
is much less.
10. Now start the vehicle with the good battery and run
the engine
for a while.
11. Try to start the vehicle with the dead battery.
If it won’t start after a few tries, it probably needs
service.
