Convertible: top
The fully automatic convertible top com-
bines secure weather protection with sim-
ple and convenient operation.
So that you get the maximum pleasure from
your convertible, here are a few tips:
> It is recommended that you close the
convertible top when the vehicle is
parked. The closed convertible top not
only protects the passenger compart-
ment against unforeseen weather dam-
age, it also represents a certain protec-
tion against theft. Nonetheless, even if
the convertible top is closed, only keep
valuables in the locked luggage com-
partment
> Do not attach luggage rack systems to
the convertible top
> At temperatures below 147/–106,
do not operate the convertible top, as
otherwise damage can occur.
Do not leave the soft top in the con-
vertible top compartment for longer
than one day when wet, as otherwise dam-
age from moisture can occur.
Do not place any objects on the convertible
top, as otherwise if the top was to be oper-
ated, they would fall off and lead to damage
or injury.
Never move the convertible top when the
rollover protection system is raised.
Driving without having completed the
opening or closing action can lead to dam-
age or injury.
Do not place hands in the top mechanism
during the opening and closing action.
Keep children away from the travel path of
the convertible top.
For safety reasons, only operate the con-
vertible top when the vehicle is at a stand-
still.<
If you have initiated top operation with
the vehicle at a standstill and then
drive off, e.g. at a traffic light, you can con-
tinue the initiated operation up to a speed
of 20 mph/30 km/h.
To do so, press and hold the correspond-
ing button.<
