To open the convertible top
Never attempt to open or close
the convertible top unless the
vehicle is completely stationary. To pre-
vent vehicle damage the top compart-
ment lid's lock will not disengage
unless the luggage compartment lid is
closed.<
1. Flip the locking handle out – refer to
illustration – and turn it as far as the
end stop will allow
2. Raise the convertible top a little bit,
release the tension
3. To unlock, press the button with the
ignition key in position 1 or higher.
The top compartment lid's lock dis-
engages and the lid itself rises a
small distance. The side windows
will lower slightly
If the indicator lamp lights up
when the button is pressed, the lid
cannot be unlocked because the top
compartment panel is raised, refer to
page 37. Lower the top compartment
panel and close the tailgate.<
