• Note that certain automatic carwashes
can do damage to fabric soft tops. This
appliestocarwashesthatusemechanical
feelers bearing against the body. We
advise against washing a Saab 9-3 Con-
vertible in automatic carwashes.
• When the soft top is being operated, low-
ering or raising should be completed. Do
not leave the soft top partially raised or
lowered: after 20 seconds it will quickly
"settle down" when the hydraulic pres-
sure is automatically released.
• It is important that the telescopic locking
handle is completely pushed in when the
soft top is closed.
General safety instructions
•
Never touch the hinges and struts of the
soft top nor the upper beam of the wind-
shield while operating the soft top.
•
Note that certain automatic car washes
can cause water to leak in places that nor-
mally would not leak. Do not direct high
pressure streams of water at the seals for
the convertible top.
•
After raising the soft top, always check
that it is properly secured to the top beam
of the windshield with the soft top locking
device before driving the car away.
•
Fold down any auxilliary mounted
antenna before raising the top to avoid
possible antenna or top damage (e.g.,
OnStar cellular antenna on windshield of
Convertible)
Afterfoldingit downyoushouldcheckthat
the tonneau cover latches have engaged
properly. Otherwise it may come loose
while you are driving and cause injury.
•
•
Roof racks and ski holders must not be
mounted on the soft top.
Under no circumstances should anything
be put into the storage space for the soft
top (under the tonneau cover) since this
could cause obstruction when the soft top
is being folded away.
•
Do not operate the soft top with passen-
gers in the rear seat or bystanders right
next to the car. There is a risk of head inju-
ries while the soft top is in motion.
•
See that no luggage is resting against the
soft top stowage space since this could
interfere with the rasing and folding of the
soft top.
•
•
Remove child car seats and children
before operating the soft top.
Don’t operate the soft top in temperatures
below 23°F (-5°C).
