Soft Top
NOTE:
By soft top “opening” we
mean folding the soft top
into the rear luggage
compartment.
By soft top “closing” we
mean the opposite.
Precautions
Before and during the soft top
operation observe the following
precautions.
WARNING!
•Before opening or closing the soft
top, always check that no one is in
the way, as impact with the soft top
may cause injury. Also check that no
objects stand in the way of the soft
top, as impact may cause damage to
both the soft top and the object.
•The movement of the soft top with
the engine running must be
performed outdoor. Exhaust gases
contain carbon monoxide which is
strongly toxic and potentially lethal.•In case of hazard, release the soft
top button, which stops its
movement.
•Keep your hands away from the soft
top levers, the soft top compartment
and the upper edge of the
windshield.
•Before operating the soft top, make
sure that no passengers are sitting in
the rear seats.
•Never operate or act on a soft top
that is performing an automatic
movement cycle.
CAUTION!
• Do not open the soft top when it is
wet, as the damp that would form in
the soft top housing might cause
permanent damage to the structure
or stains or mold in the canvas.
Should it need to be opened, do not
leave it sitting in the housing for
more than a day.
• Open the soft top when it is dirty, as
both the canvas and the rear window
might be damaged when it is folded.
• Do not open the soft top if there is
ice or snow on it. Should it need to
be opened, remove the snow or iceand do not use sharp or pointed
objects.
• Do not place objects on the soft top
as they might fall and cause damage
and injury when it is moved.
• Do not place any objects in the soft
top housing.
• Do not fasten roof-racks or similar on
the soft top.
• When closing the soft top, never
start driving before the soft top has
completed the closing cycle and has
locked on the windshield frame.
• Only open or close the soft top when
the vehicle is stationary, otherwise it
might not fully open or close. For
example, if you start moving the soft
top when you are standing at a
traffic light and you start driving
before the soft top has completed its
opening or closing cycle, you can
complete the operation by driving
slowly (do not exceed 19 mph -
30 km/h) and holding the soft top
movement switch pushed until the
process has been completed.
• If you are driving at high speeds,
vacuum might be created in the
passenger compartment and the soft
top might start “wobbling”; to solve
Understanding the Vehicle

this problem let more air into the
passenger compartment.
• It is advisable to close the soft top
when parking the vehicle. This not
only protects the passenger
compartment against weather
agents, but is also a safeguard
against theft.
• If possible, park in the shade as
prolonged exposure to the sun will
alter the canvas fiber and color.
• Before disconnecting the battery,
lower the side windows by about 1.6
- 2 in (4 - 5 cm) to prevent damaging
the soft top strip when the doors are
opened and closed. When the
battery is connected and fully
charged, this operation is performed
automatically whenever the doors
are opened or closed. The windows
must remain lowered until the
recharged battery is reconnected. If
the battery is dead and the windows
are fully up, only open the doors
when strictly necessary and being
extremely careful: do not close them
again until the windows can be
lowered.
• Cover the soft top with a protective
cloth when it is going to be parked
outdoor for a long period of time.• To avoid damaging the soft top, the
vehicle must not be washed with
high-pressure water jet systems, be it
a manual nozzle or an automatic car
wash with turning rollers.
• Organic residues must be
immediately removed, as they may
damage both the soft top fabric and
its strips.
• Do not use solvents, alcohol, petrol
or other generic detergents to clean
the soft top.
"Summer open" Strategy
Using the key inserted in the external
driver's door lock, you can control the
soft top opening/closing strategy
referred to as “Summer open”.
NOTE:
•The opening and closing cycle can be
interrupted at any time, moving the
key back to its initial position.
•The following operations are
performed with the engine off. This
involves an extremely high power
consumption, which causes the
battery to discharge faster.
With the soft topfully closed:
• insert the key in the external driver’s
door lock;• turn the key clockwise until
unlocking the doors and hold it in
this position. The automatic soft top
opening cycle will begin after
approx. 2 seconds;
• do not move the key for the entire
opening cycle.
With the soft topfully open:
• insert the key in the external driver’s
door lock;
• turn the key counterclockwise until
locking the doors and hold it in this
position. The automatic soft top
closing cycle will begin after approx.
2 seconds;
• do not move the key for the entire
closing cycle.
