ward.
2 Unlock the rear-seat backrest with the

hydraulic valve.
4 Open the valve about half a turn.
5 Open the trunk lid.

inside the trunk lid lining on the
right-hand side, is a hole into which the
straight part of the tool is to be inserted;
see the figure.

tool backwards. The cover should lift
half an inch or so (a centimeter or so).
Remove the tool. Close the trunk lid.
WARNING
Manual operation of the soft top must be
resorted to only to raise it in an emer-
gency (e.g. in case of an electrical or
hydraulic fault).
After manual raising the soft top must on
no account be folded down manually,
since this could cause damage to the soft
top mechanism.
