NOTICE: (Continued)

Don’t try to lower or raise the convertible

top or tap or beat on the plastic windows if
your vehicle is out in cold weather, 41

_F

(5

_C) or below. The cold can cause cracks

and other damage to the windows and to
the top as it is being lowered or raised.

Don’t lower the top if it is damp or wet.

After the top is down, the trapped water
can cause stains, mildew and damage to the
inside of your car. Be sure to dry off the top
before you lower it.

Don’t lower the convertible top if the rear

flap or side windows are dirty. Dirt could
scratch the side windows.

The convertible top isn’t designed to carry

weight. Never let anyone sit on the top, and
don’t put anything on top of it when it is
up, or it could be damaged.

Opening and Closing Your Sunroof

1. Lower your antenna and swing your sun 

visors down.

JE–12–0020–X

2. Squeeze the front top bow latch buttons and pull the

latch back.

3. Unhook the latch from the front top bow.
