f Please see the chapter “CAR CARE INSTRUC-
TIONS” on Page 224.
Warning!
When opening or closing the convertible top,
serious personal injury may occur if a per-
son’s body parts are near or in the way of the
convertible top mechanism’s moving parts.
f Make absolutely sure that nobody can be in-
jured by the convertible-top mechanism or the
convertible-top compartment lid.
Do not operate convertible top:
– At temperatures below 32 °F (0 °C).
– When one side of the car is on a curb, a hoist
or a jack.
– When items of luggage or other objects hinder
the convertible top movement.
– With the rollbars extended.
f Avoid frequent operation of the convertible top
with the engine off; the vehicle battery would
be unintentionally discharged rapidly.
f Drive only with the convertible top fully open or
closed (end positions).
f When opening or closing the convertible top,
ensure there is sufficient clearance above the
convertible top (e.g. in the garage).
f To prevent damp stains and abrasions, only
open the convertible top in a dry, clean state.
f Park your car in the shade whenever possible,
as the fabric, rubber material and color can be
harmed by long exposure to sunlight.
f The convertible top may only be actuated dur-
ing driving on even surfaces.
f The convertible top must not be used with
strong counter wind (over approx. 50 mph/
80 km/h).

terrupted when the convertible top reaches its fi-
nal position.
