If the radio is on the sound may be muted for a brief
time due to a new audio system equalization being
loaded.
If the vehicle has lost power, the convertible top can still
be raised by releasing pressure on the hydraulic pump,
located under the passenger’s side of the tonneau cover,
by using the following steps. The carpet liner on the
passenger’s side must be pulled back to access the
hydraulic pump.
Manual operation of the power convertible top cannot
be attempted for five minutes from the last time the
convertible top button was pressed if the top is not
completely stowed, with the top down and the tonneau
latched, or closed, with the front top latch locked in place,
at the time the convertible top button was released.
1. Open the tonneau cover by pulling the emergency
release cable.
The tonneau cover emergency release cable is
located behind the passenger’s seat head restraint,
on the underside forward edge of the tonneau
cover. Also, see Hatch on page 2-14 for information
on the emergency trunk release handle.
Be careful when opening the tonneau cover by hand.
If the tonneau cover is opened quickly, damage can
occur to the hinging mechanism, which can prevent
proper operation of the convertible top.
