Folding top
Folding top
Folding top
General
The comprehensively engineered design of the fabric folding top
allows it to be operated quickly and simply. When open, the folding
top is stowed completely in a tonneau provided specifically for this
purpose.
In normal operating conditions, the folding top is wind -and water ­
proof. Under certain circumstances, a small quantity of droplets might form, but only in extremely inclement weather, e.g. torrential
or continuous heavy rain. This is normal and not a cause for
concern .
Follow the care instructions =>
page 203, "Folding top care" to main ­
tain the folding top's attractive appearance and to keep it wind- and
waterproof. Please follow these instructions as well:
• Stow and open the folding top only when it is clean . When the
top is folded away, sharp -edged contaminants can build up as silt
and cause wear spots on the rear window, which may damage the
folding top over time. Of course, ice and snow should also be
removed before opening the folding top.
• Under no circumstances should you use sharp -edged or abrasive
objects to remove ice and snow. Use a commercial ice scraper to
remove ice from of the rear window.
• The folding top should be opened only if it is completely dry . If
the folding top is opened and then stored wet, unattractive indenta ­
tions may develop. In addition, over time, mold and mildew stains
can develop.
• Do not leave the folding top open for several weeks at a time;
instead, open and close it from time to time so that the fabric does
not discolor where it folds, and to prevent creases from forming. This is especially
important if it happens to be stowed while still
damp on occasion.
• Because the fabric becomes less flexible when temperatures
drops below zero, we recommend not operating the folding top
below0°C.
& WARNING
• When operating the folding top, make sure that any external
factors {e.g. the wind) do not impair its function or endanger other
drivers.
• Never drive while the folding top is not properly secured. Other­
wise, it may be pulled open by the wind. This can cause injuries
and damage to the vehicle -danger of an accident!
• When opening and closing the folding top make sure to keep
yourself and others clear of all moving parts. Risk of injury!
0 Note
• Always make sure that there is enough clearance above the
vehicle so that the folding top is not damaged when opening and
closing.
• Do not place any objects in the tonneau to avoid damage when
opening the folding top.
[ i] Tips
• The folding top should be operated only with the ignition
switched on.
• When parking the car with the folding top open, bear in mind
that the vehicle's interior is not protected from damage due to unex­ pected weather conditions, or unauthorized access. It is therefore
advisable to close the folding top before leaving the vehicle. If
~

objects are left inside the vehicle, they should be locked in the
luggage compartment. •
