assured protection against the elements with
simple and easy handling.
Before opening and closing
>
Read and comply with the preceding safety
precautions.
Here are a few tips so that you get the most out
of your BMW:
>
Make sure that the convertible top com-
partment panel in the cargo bay has been
folded down; refer to page 23. Otherwise
the convertible top cannot be opened.
>
It is advisable to close the convertible top
when the vehicle is parked. When closed,
the top not only guards the passenger com-
partment from unforeseeable damage from
the weather, but also affords a degree of
protection against theft. Valuables, how-
ever, should only be kept in the locked
cargo bay, even when the convertible top is
closed.
>
Ensure that the luggage compartment lid/
tailgate is closed.
Opening and closing

refer to page 40, and while the vehicle is sta-
tionary:
>
Never mount a roof-mounted luggage rack
system on the convertible top.
If at all possible, operate the convertible
top only with the engine running. This
saves unnecessary battery wear.
Before closing the convertible top, remove any
objects from the windshield frame that other-
wise could prevent the convertible top from
closing properly.<
Do not operate the convertible top at tem-
peratures below 147/–106, otherwise
damage could result.
Never keep a wet convertible top in the convert-
ible top compartment for longer than one day,
otherwise the moisture could cause damage.
Do not lay objects on the convertible top, other-
wise they could fall off when the convertible top
is operated and cause damage or injuries.
Driving while the convertible top is not com-
pletely open or closed can cause vehicle dam-
age or personal injury.
Do not reach into the convertible top mecha-
nism during opening and closing. Keep children
away from the convertible top's range of move-
ment.
For safety reasons, whenever possible operate
the convertible top when the vehicle is station-
ary.<
