Partial vacuums that occur at higher
speeds in the passenger compart-
ment can make the convertible top flap.
Use the ventilation controls to increase the
air supply so that no partial vacuum occurs
in the vehicle.<
If the opening or closing action is not
completed, the luggage compartment
lid cannot be opened.
When the button for top operation is
pressed, the side windows move down-
wards slightly; the rear window is lowered
completely.
If you hold the button pressed for longer
than 2 seconds after completion of the
opening or closing action and the LED has
gone out, the side windows and rear win-
dow move once again.<
To close the electrically activated side
windows while the vehicle is being
driven, always close the rear windows or
all four windows simultaneously first, as
otherwise the windows cannot close tightly
at higher speeds.<
Indicator lamp
Prior to opening and closing
In the following situations, a message is
displayed on the Control Display and an
acoustic signal sounds in addition to the
indicator lamp:
>
Read carefully and comply with the
safety precautions that appear above
>
Ensure that the convertible top com-
partment floor in the luggage compart-
ment is folded down, refer to page 32,
as otherwise the convertible top cannot
be opened
>
During convertible top operation, the
LED lights up green. It goes out as soon
as the opening or closing action is com-
pleted
>
Ensure that the luggage compartment
lid is closed.
>
>
If the indicator lamp flashes red when
you release the button, the opening or
closing action is not completed
Opening and closing
As of ignition key position 1, with the vehi-
cle stationary:
If the indicator lamp lights up red with
the button pressed, the convertible top
compartment floor is folded up or a fault
has occurred. The convertible top can-
not be moved.
So as not to place an excessive load
on the battery, only operate the con-
vertible top with the engine running, if pos-
sible.
Before closing the convertible top, remove
foreign bodies from the windshield frame,
as these might inhibit closing of the con-
vertible top.<
Interruption
The automatic sequence of movements is
interrupted immediately if the button for top
operation is released. The sequence can
be continued in the desired direction using
the button.
If the opening or closing action is
interrupted for a longer period by
releasing the button, the convertible top
remains in that position for approx. 15 min-
utes before it slowly moves to a stable
position. The sequence can be continued
using the buttons.
Do not interrupt and continue the closing
action several times in succession, as oth-
erwise the fully automatic top mechanism
can be damaged.
