\b\b\bThe PTCM will lockout the power convertible top system if the vehicle charging system is malfunction-
ing, or the battery is run down, or the hydraulic pump is overheating. In addition, the system prohibits lower-
ing the top when ambient temperature is at 0°F (-18°C) or lower and raising the top when ambient temperature
is below -40°F (-40°C).
• If you are trying to lower the top and ambient temperature is 0°F (-18°C) or lower, wait until the temperature
rises and the top is thawed and dry before operating the power top. A soft top should not be lowered at tem-
peratures below 32°F (0°C).
• If you are trying to raise the top and ambient temperature is below -40°F (-40°C), wait until the temperature
rises before operating the power top.
• If the vehicle charging system is malfunctioning, see your authorized dealer for service.
• If the battery is run down, have it recharged and tested at your authorized dealer.
• Hydraulic pump overheating can occur if you lower and raise the top consecutively (usually more than six or
seven times depending upon the ambient temperature). Wait at least five minutes before operating the power
top again. NOTE:If lockout occurs due to hydraulic pump overheating, the system will allow you to raise the
top without waiting five minutes. However, do so only if necessary.
