Problems with the side windows
GWARNING
If you close aside window again immediately after it has been blocked or reset, the side window
closes with increased or maximum force. The reversing feature is then not active. Parts of the
body could be trapped in the closing area in the process. This poses an increased risk of injury or
even fatal injury.
Make sure that no parts of the body are in the closing area. To stop the closing process, release
the switch or push the switch again to reopen the side window.
ProblemPossible causes/consequences and MSolutions

pectedly and may cause you or others to be
trapped. There is arisk of injury.
Always open or close the soft top completely.
GWARNING
Closing the roof manually is acomplicated
and technically demanding procedure, which
requires alot of strength. You or others can
become trapped. There is arisk of injury.
Only have the soft top closed manually at a
qualified specialist workshop.
!Never sit on the rear shelf or store heavy
object sthere. You will otherwise damage the
roof and the rear shelf of your vehicle.

abruptly. Make certain that the roof is closed
when you leave the vehicle. The vehicle elec-
tronics can be damaged if water enters the
vehicle interior.
