qPower Retractable Hardtop Precautions
WARNING
Always confirm that there are no people around the vehicle before operating the
hardtop:
If the hardtop were to operate unexpectedly, it could result in an accident and serious
injury from someone getting caught in the mechanism.
Always drive safely and observe the speed limit:
Rollover accidents on a hardtop vehicle are dangerous. The hardtop is not as strong
as a regular steel roof. Rollover accidents could dislodge or crush the hardtop and
cause serious injuries or even death, just as with no top.
Sit in the seat with the seat belt correctly fastened when the vehicle is moving:
Standing in the vehicle, or sitting on the deck or center console when the vehicle is
moving is a dangerous way to ride. During a sudden maneuver or collision you could
be seriously injured or even killed.
Always keep your hands and fingers away from the fastening mechanisms when
moving the hardtop:
It is dangerous to place your hands or fingers near the fastening mechanisms. Your
hands or fingers could be caught and injured by the mechanism.
CAUTION
l
Do not drive with the hardtop partially opened; this could damage the hardtop or
cause an unexpected accident.
l
Children should not be allowed to play with the open/close switch.
l
Do not place objects on the deck or near the back window.
Even small objects may interfere and cause damage.
l
Remove leaves that accumulate on and around the hardtop. If the leaves are not
removed, they may block the water drainage outlets.
l
Before opening the hardtop, make sure the rear window defogger switch (Defroster) is
turned off. Otherwise the heat generated from the defogger could damage the hardtop
and the internal material.
l
Before opening or closing the hardtop, stop in a safe place off the right-of-way and park
on a level surface.
