Raising the Retractable Hardtop
1. Park on a level surface. Shift the transmission into
P (Park).
2. The vehicle’s engine must be on or in Acc.
3. Lower both sun visors.
Notice: Raising or lowering the top while the vehicle
is in motion can cause damage to the top or top
mechanism. Make sure the vehicle is in P (Park) to
lower or raise the top.
4. Make sure nothing or no one is on or around the
top. Make sure the trunk cargo cover is in place
with no cargo on top of or in front of the cargo
cover. See Rear Storage Area on page 2-54 for
more information. Also, be sure the valet lockout
switch is off.
5. Push and hold the top
of this button located
behind the shift lever.
The windows will automatically lower and the top will
raise. A chime will sound when the top has raised
completely.
After the top is fully raised, release the retractable
hardtop button.
If the radio is on, you may notice a brief mute in sound.
This is normal and due to a new audio system
equalization being loaded for the vehicle with the top
raised.
Under certain conditions, the Driver Information
Center (DIC) may display messages regarding the
retractable hardtop. See DIC Warnings and Messages
on page 3-60 for more information.
