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.
3.
Open the convertible top and guide it
toward the rear of the vehicle.

When the convertible top is open, the cen-
tral locking system also locks button 1 for
the convertible top, refer to page 26. The
convertible top cannot be operated. This
provides better theft protection for valu-
ables stored in the cargo bay.

Gently swing the convertible top downward
and press until it engages audibly.
Never mount a roof-mounted luggage rack
system on the convertible top.
Never keep a wet convertible top in the
convertible top compartment for longer
than one day, otherwise the moisture could
cause damage.<
