Removing the Roof Panel
{CAUTION:
Do not try to remove a roof panel while the
vehicle is moving. Trying to remove the roof
panel while the vehicle is moving could cause
an accident. The panel could fall into the
vehicle and cause you to lose control, or it
could fly off and strike another vehicle. You or
others could be injured. Remove the roof panel
only when the vehicle is parked.
Until you are sure you can remove the panel alone,
have someone help you.
Notice: If you drop or rest a roof panel on its edges,
the roof panel, paint and/or weatherstripping may be
damaged. Always place the roof panel in the stowage
receivers after removing it from the vehicle.
