Tips about the convertible top:▷If possible, close the convertible top when
the vehicle is parked. A closed convertible
top protects it from weather-related dam‐
age and to some extent from theft.▷Event when the convertible top is closed,
only store valuables in the locked cargo area.▷At higher speeds, vacuum produced in the
passenger compartment cause the
convertible top to begin to flatten. Increase
the amount of air via the automatic climate
control so that no vacuum is produced in the
vehicle.
Notes
The trunk lid cannot be opened if the convertible
top is not fully opened or closed.
Safety information about the convertible
top
▷With temperatures below +14 ℉/-10 ℃ do
not open the convertible top; otherwise
damages could result.▷Do not leave the open convertible top in the
convertible top well longer than one day
while the top is still wet; otherwise, damage
could result due to moisture.▷The convertible top pivots up during open‐
ing and closing. When the top is moved, e.g.
in garages, make sure that there is a mini‐
mum height of 79 inches/2 meters; other‐
wise, it damages may result.▷Do not place any objects on the convertible
top, otherwise, they could fall and cause
damage or injuries.▷When the rollover protection system is ex‐
tended, do not under any circumstances
move the convertible top.▷Always open or close the convertible top
completely. Convertible top and convertible
top well storage cover are locked in the final
positions. Driving with the convertible tope
or convertible top well storage cover un‐
locked can result in damage.▷Do not reach into the convertible top mech‐
anism during the opening and closing oper‐
ation. Keep children away from the opening
path of the convertible top, otherwise, there
is a risk of injury.▷When the convertible top is opened during
driving, be alert to traffic; otherwise, it may
result in an accident. If possible, do not move
the convertible top while driving in reverse
because rearward vision is severely im‐
paired while the convertible top is in motion.
During windy conditions, do not operate the
convertible top while driving. Do not drive
faster than 30 mph/50 km/h; otherwise, ve‐
hicle damage may occur.▷Do not attach any roof carrier systems; oth‐
erwise, an accident may occur.◀
