Soft top
A minimum height clearance of 6
1/2ft. (2 m) is
required to lower or raise the soft top.
The raising or lowering procedure can only be started
with the luggage cover (page 246) and trunk lid closed.
The raising or lowering procedure is immediately
interrupted by releasing the soft top switch.
Do not operate the soft top while a trunk luggage carrier
is installed.
To prevent damage to the soft top, soft top compartment
cover, trunk lid or luggage/cargo when lowering the
roof:
•load trunk only to the height of the luggage cover,
•do not permit luggage/cargo to raise the closed
luggage cover,
•do not load anything on top of the luggage cover,
•do not place anything on the soft top compartment
cover,
•do not open the trunk lid while the soft top is being
raised or lowered. This is required since the soft top
compartment cover moves upward and backward
during raising or lowering operations, •do not operate the luggage cover with the soft top
lowered. Doing so will result in damage to the
luggage cover or the soft top.
Lowering a wet soft top can result in water reaching the
vehicle interior. The soft top should be dry when
lowering it into the soft top storage compartment.
Do not lower a frozen soft top until thawed and dry.
Doing so may result in damage not covered by the
Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
To prevent mildew, the soft top must be dry before
lowering it into the storage compartment.
The soft top should not be lowered or raised at outside
temperatures below +5
°F (-15
°C), since the material
becomes less pliable with lower temperatures.
Notes:
Rear passengers should lean forward while raising or
lowering the soft top, to clear the path of the rear
window.
To prevent the soft top from being lowered
unintentionally while a trunk luggage carrier is
installed, keep luggage cover in trunk in the open
position with the soft top raised.
