If the vehicle has lost power, the convertible top can still
be raised by releasing pressure on the hydraulic
pump, located under the passenger’s side of the
tonneau cover, by using the following steps.
1. Open the tonneau cover.
2. Locate the pressure release bolt on the front side of
the hydraulic pump.3. Use the wrench, attached to the inboard side of the
hydraulic pump, and turn the pressure release bolt
counterclockwise one revolution, to relieve
pressure to the hydraulic pump. This will allow you
to manually raise the convertible top.
4. Then follow the steps under raising the manual
convertible top. See “Convertible Top (Manual)”
underConvertible Top (Manual) on page 2-57
orConvertible Top (Power) on page 2-64
When power is restored to the vehicle, the hydraulic bolt
must be tightened, by turning it clockwise. The power
convertible top button can then be used to lower or raise
the convertible top.
If the power convertible top is operated multiple times,
the engine should be running to prevent drain on
the vehicle’s battery. Under certain conditions, the Driver
Information Center (DIC) may display a message
regarding the power top. SeeDIC Warnings and
Messages on page 3-54for more information.
