To facilitate trunk loading and unload-

can raise the hardtop from its storage
position in the trunk using the loading
aid feature (

page 221). You may also
unhook the luggage cover.
Remember to resecure the luggage
cover after loading/unloading the
trunk. Otherwise you will not be able to
lower the retractable hardtop.
If the vehicle was previously centrally
locked, the trunk lid will lock automati-
cally when closed (

turn signals will flash three times to
confirm locking.
