Indicator lights overview
The indicator lights in the instrument cluster
blink or turn on. They indicate functions or mal-
functions. Some warning and indicator lights
turn on when you switch the ignition on and must
turn off when the drive system is switched on or
while driving.
With some indicator lights, messages may ap-
pear and warning signals may sound. The indica-
tor lights and messages may be covered by other
displays. To show them again, select the second
tab for messages with the multifunction steering
wheel > page 72.
Some indicator lights in the display can display in
several colors.
OMe ile Lins
If the A or A indicator light turns on, check the
message in the instrument cluster.

The following indicator lights may be available,
depending on the vehicle equipment:

8S1012721BE
Power top

Power top
Automatic power top
(eT e @eleurlsela)
Applies to: vehicles with power top
The power top opens and closes automatically.
When open, the power top is stored completely
in the power top compartment. The power top
can be opened or closed at speeds up to 30 mph
(50 km/h). The power top will not open when the
temperature is below 5 °F (-15 °C).
Under normal conditions, the power top is wind-
and waterproof. In rare cases, small droplets of
water may form under extreme weather condi-
tions, such as torrential or prolonged rain. That is
normal and no cause for concern.
Follow
the care instructions to keep the power
top free of leaks and to maintain its appearance
=> page 236, Care and cleaning. Also observe the
following:
— Open and stow the power top only when it is
clean and dry. Stowing the power top when it is
damp can create imprints in it, and mildew and
other damage can result if it is left stowed
while damp for long periods of time.
— To prevent scratching or damaging the power
top, do not use any sharp-edged objects to re-
move ice and snow. The rear window may be
cleared of ice with a standard ice scraper.
— Do not leave the power top open for several
weeks or the creases in it may become discol-
ored.
— Do not open the power top when the tempera-
ture is below 32 °F (0 °C). The fabric in the
power top loses elasticity in sub-zero tempera-
tures.

Opening and closing the power top
Applies to: vehicles with power top

Requirement: the speed must be between 4 mph
(6 km/h) and 30 mph (50 km/h).
>» Switch the ignition on.
> To open/close the power top all the way, briefly

sary to hold the switch.
The status of the power top is shown in the in-
strument cluster when operating the power top
switch.
A message will appear in the instrument cluster
if the power top cannot be opened or closed.
A WARNING
— When operating the power top, make sure
the function is not affected by wind or other
factors and that it does not interfere with
other drivers.
— Visibility to the rear is limited when operat-
ing the power top. Avoid operating the top
while driving in reverse.

— Never drive with the power top unlocked.
The wind from driving could cause the pow-
er top to open. This can result in injuries and
damage to the vehicle. >

Wind deflector
Applies to: vehicles with wind deflector
+ a
= oa

Fig. 32 Center console: switch for operating the wind de-

and retracts the wind deflector.
> To extend the wind deflector, pull the wind de-
flector switch until the wind deflector is com-
pletely extended.
> To retract the wind deflector, pull the wind de-
flector switch until the wind deflector is com-
pletely retracted.

A WARNING
— Do not use the wind deflector to secure car-
go.
— Always pay careful attention when closing
the wind deflector. Pinching could cause se-
rious injuries.

@ Tips
— If the wind deflector switch is released while
it is extending, the process will stop imme-
diately.
— The wind deflector works best when all of
the windows are rolled up while driving.
