tive receiving holes in the windshield header. Push the
latch handle forward all the way to close the latch.
NOTE: Until the convertible top system has had ad-

engage the latch hook and close the latch. Several weeks

To Lower the Top:
1. To lower the top, first ensure that the door windows
are lowered at least an inch.
2. Depress the button at the top of the latch upwards and
then pull the handle down and rearward, towards you.
