It may cause burns even at low temperatures, especially if used for long periods
of time.

•To raise the soft top, perform the above
steps in the opposite order.
CAUTION!
• Do not run a fabric top through an automatic car wash. Window scratches and
wax buildup may result.

top may result.
• Do not lower the top when the windows are dirty. Grit may scratch the window.
• Do not move your vehicle until the top has been either fully attached to the
windshield frame, or fully lowered.
• The soft top is not designed to carry any additional loads such as roof racks,
spare tires, building, hunting, or camping supplies, and/or luggage, etc. Also,
it was not designed as a structural member of the vehicle and, thus, cannot
properly carry any additional loads other than environmental (rain, snow, etc.).
WARNING!
• Do not drive the vehicle with the rear window curtain up unless the side
curtains are also open. Dangerous exhaust gases which can kill could enter the
vehicle.
• The fabric upper doors and fabric top are designed only for protection against
the elements. Do not rely on them to contain occupants within the vehicle or to
protect against injury during an accident. Remember, always wear seat belts.
