Closing the Convertible Top
1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop and remove the
tonneau caps.
2. Press and hold the convertible top control as the top unfolds
and moves forward toward the windshield header.
3. When the top lines up evenly with the windshield header,
release the convertible top control.
4. Pull down on the latch handle and rotate it counterclockwise
to secure the convertible top.
5. After securing the convertible top fully, push the latch
handle up into the stowed position to lock the latch, and
then use the power window controls to close the windows.

be needed to secure the top.
For complete information, refer to the Convertible Top
chapter of your Owner’s Manual.
Tips When Using Your Convertible Top
» Do not store articles behind the rear seat. Articles stored
in the convertible top stowage compartment may break
the rear glass window when you open the top.
» The windows lower automatically when opening or
closing the top.
» Do not lower the top when the top material is wet. Remove
any leaves or debris on the outer surface of the top.
» The convertible top does not operate unless the vehicle is
stationary or traveling under 3 mph (4.8 km/h).
Note: You must switch your ignition on to open or close the
convertible top. We recommend that you leave the engine
running to prevent draining the battery.

Opening the Convertible Top
1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop.
2. Move the latch handle, located above the interior mirror, down
toward the windshield and rotate the handle clockwise to release the
convertible top.
3. Press and hold the convertible top control, located on the overhead

Using the Tonneau Caps
Your convertible top also includes two tonneau caps, one for each side of\
the
vehicle. You can stow these caps inside the luggage compartment.
After opening your convertible top, place the tonneau caps between the t\
op
and your vehicle trim molding by doing the following:
1. Insert the leading edge under the trim.
2. When the leading edge is under the trim slot, angle the side edge down
so the edges slide under the surrounding molding. Secure the side edge
into place between the trim edges.
3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 on the opposite side of the vehicle to install the \
second tonneau cap.
Note: Remove the tonneau caps before attempting to close the convertible
top or a chime sounds and a warning message appears in the instrument
panel. If this happens, remove and stow the caps, and then press the
convertible top control again.
