LED lights up green. It goes out as soon as
the top is fully opened or closed.
If the right-hand LED flashes red when you
release the switch, the opening or closing
action has not yet finished.

Ensure that the trunk lid is closed.
The vehicle should be parked on fairly level
ground. Excessive angle is indicated by a
lamp.
If the right LED lights up red when the
switch is pressed, the cargo area partition is
folded up, the trunk lid is not closed, the
vehicle is standing on a strong incline or
there is a malfunction. The retractable hard-
top cannot be moved.
Opening and closing
When the vehicle is stationary and at radio
readiness or beyond, refer to page 49:
If possible, conserve the battery by only
operating the retractable hardtop when
the engine is running.
Before closing the retractable hardtop, remove
all foreign objects from the windshield frame as
these could prevent the hardtop from closing
properly.<
Interruption
The automatic sequence of movements is
interrupted if the switch for hardtop operation is
released. The sequence can be continued in
the desired direction by pushing or pulling the
switch.
A hardtop that is not fully opened or
closed is a safety hazard.
Do not interrupt and resume the closing proce-
dure several times in close succession as this
could damage the mechanism.<
If the hardtop is not fully opened or
closed, the trunk lid cannot be opened
and the windows cannot be moved.<
