Top switches
N00505100030
The top can be opened and closed using the switches. The top
moves only while a switch is being pushed.
NOTE
●
If the OPEN switch and CLOSE switch are both pushed at
the same time, the operation indicator lamp will flash
slowly (approximately one flashes per second) and a tone
will sound intermittently and rapidly (approximately three
per second) to indicate that the top is not going to work.
To operate the top, release the switches and push the rele-
vant switch again.
●
If the switches are continuously pushed one after the
other, a protection circuit may operate, making the electric
convertible top temporarily inoperable. In this event, the
operation indicator lamp will flash slowly (approximately
one flash per second) and a tone will sound intermittently
(approximately three times per second). Wait about 7 min-
utes, then try operating the electric convertible top again.
To open the top
N00505200031
1. Without obstructing traffic, stop the vehicle on a level,
firm surface where the top can be safely operated.
2. Securely apply the parking brake. If the vehicle has an
automatic transaxle, place the selector lever in the “P”
(PARK) position. If the vehicle has a manual transaxle,
place the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral) position.
NOTE
●
The top can be operated with the selector lever of an auto-
matic transaxle in a position other than “P” (PARK) and
with the gearshift lever of a manual transaxle in a position
other than “N” (Neutral). For safety, however, you should
place the selector lever or gearshift lever (as relevant) in
the indicated position and apply the parking brake.
3. Start the engine.
NOTE
●
Operating the top without the engine running can drain the
battery. To avoid a dead battery, operate the top with the
engine running.
4. Pull down both sun visors.
