separator is correctly located in the
deployed position in the luggage

rear area which could interfere with
the top when folding down, e.g.
ensure that the battery cover trim is
fitted and secure.
• Do not attempt to operate the
convertible top at temperatures
below –15°C (5°F). This may cause
damage to the fabric.
• If the convertible top is operated
above 24km/h (15 mph) to
excessive speeds there is a risk of
damage to the convertible top.
• Do not attempt to OPEN the
convertible top manually, as
damage to the linkage mechanism
may occur.
1. Ensure that the ignition system is in
the ON condition.
2. Ensure that the luggage separator in
