So that you can get the most enjoyment 
out of your MINI Convertible, please 
observe the following tips:
>It is recommended that you close the 
convertible top whenever the vehicle is 
parked. 
The closed convertible top not only pro-
tects the vehicle interior from damage 
due to unforeseen bad weather, but also 
provides a certain degree of protection 
against theft
>Even when the convertible top is closed, 
keep valuable items in the locked lug-
gage compartment or in the lockable 
glove compartment
>Do not mount any roof rack systems on 
the convertible top
>To avoid damage, do not operate the 
convertible top at temperatures below 
14 
7/ –10 6.
Do not leave the convertible top 
folded for more than one day if it is 
wet, to prevent permanent damage from 
moisture. Do not place any objects on the 
convertible top, as they could otherwise fall 
off while the convertible top is being oper-
ated and result in damage or personal 
injury.
<
Only operate the convertible top 
when the vehicle is at a standstill. 
Otherwise, the procedure cannot be carried 
out or it will be interrupted.
<
Driving off before an opening or clos-
ing procedure is completely finished 
can lead to damage or personal injury. 
Do not reach into the convertible top mech-
anism during the opening or closing proce-
dure. Keep children away from the swivel-
ing area of the convertible top while it is in 
operation.  
To close the power side windows while the 
vehicle is in motion, always close the rear 
windows first or all four windows at the 
same time. Otherwise the windows will not 
close tightly if the vehicle is being driven at 
higher speeds.
