Roll bar and head restraints, rear
The rear head restraints are integrated in the roll bar.
The roll bar will be automatically raised in an accident
or in a potentially dangerous driving situation. A ratchet
noise can be heard when the roll bar is automatically
raised.
The roll bar can be lowered again after an automatic
deployment by pressing the upper half of the roll bar
switch (for at least 8 seconds) until the roll bar drive
mechanism audibly engages. Then press the lower half
of the switch to lower the roll bar.
If the roll bar was raised using the switch, it will be
automatically lowered when activating the soft top
switch.
Warning!
Raising or lowering of the roll bar could injure rear
seated occupants.
Before operating the roll bar switch make sure that
the roll bar’s path is clear and no persons due to
inattention are injured by the moving roll bar.
For your own safety we recommend to drive with
the roll bar raised, if
• the outside temperature is below +5°F (-15°C).
• the rear seats are occupied by passengers.
Before working on the vehicle, e.g. when changing
wheels, the roll bar should be raised with the
switch, and the electronic key should be removed
from the steering lock, to prevent possible injury.
In case of potential danger release the switch to
immediately interrupt the operating procedure.
