Opening and closing the retractable 
hardtop
For safety reasons, the retractable hardtop 
can only be opened and closed when the 
vehicle is standing still.
Warning!
G
Before operating the switch for the retract-
able hardtop make sure that no persons are 
injured by the moving parts (retractable 
hardtop, roof frame, and trunk lid) due to in-
attention.
Hands must never be placed near the roof 
frame, upper windshield area, retractable 
hardtop, shelf behind roll bars, or trunk lid 
while the retractable hardtop is being raised 
or lowered. Serious personal injury may oc-
cur.
If potential danger exists, release the re-
tractable hardtop switch. This immediately 
interrupts the raising or lowering procedure. 
You then can operate the retractable hard-
top switch to raise or lower the retractable 
hardtop away from the danger zone.
!
Never sit or place heavy objects on the 
rear shelf. Doing so could cause dam-
age to the retractable hardtop and the 
rear shelf.
Warning!
G
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the 
key from the steering lock and lock the vehi-
cle. Do not leave children unattended in the 
vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehi-
cle. Unsupervised use of vehicle equipment 
may cause an accident and/or serious per-
sonal injury.
