Convertible top
Introduction
The convertible top opens automatically at the press of a button. When open, the convertible top is stored in a compartment.
The multi-layer construction of the convertible top helps to insulate the vehicle interior from tempera-ture and vibration and is also wind- and waterproof under normal operating conditions. Some water could enter between the convertible top and body under extreme conditions such as torrential rain or washing the vehicle in a car wash. This is normal and no cause for concern.

WARNING
Accidents and serious injury may result while driving when the convertible top is not secure-ly latched or when the opening or closing process is incomplete. Even at low speeds, air resistance can twist or deform the convertible top or tear it off completely, endangering vehi-cle occupants and others.
x Even though it is possible, it is not recommended to drive when the convertible top is not completely open or not completely closed and securely latched.
x If you must move the vehicle to another location for safety reasons and the top is not completely open or not completely closed and securely latched, we recommend that you do not drive any faster than a slow walk.
x When opening and closing the convertible top, always make sure no one will be injured by the supports and other moving parts.
NOTICE
x To help prevent damage, remove ice and snow from the convertible top before opening it in winter weather.
NOTICE
Objects with sharp edges or that cause scratches or dirty components can damage the con-vertible top or the rear window.
x Never remove snow and ice with sharp objects or objects that can cause scratches.
