Loading the trunk

When the power retractable hard top is down, it is folded in the trunk. Using the button shown in the illustration above,
the folded power retractable hard top can be moved up or down slightly to facilitate loading or unloading small objects.
NOTE: This movement is part of the normal power retractable hard top operation, which means that messages
pertaining to the power retractable hard top's operation (see page 73
) also apply to the this function.
WARNING!
Anyone near the vehicle should be well clear of the power retractable hard top's moving parts before it is operated.
CAUTION!
Any objects that impede the movement of the power retractable hard top may damage the top or its mechanism.
When the power retractable hard top has been raised for loading the trunk, or if its movement has been interrupted
by pressing the button twice, the trunk should not be closed. Doing so can damage the system or cause paint damage.
