CLOSING THE CONVERTIBLE TOP
Note:
The convertible top will not operate unless the vehicle is
stationary or traveling under 3 mph (5 kmh).
Note:
Make sure that the latch handles are pulled down and in the fully
opened position before the top makes contact with the windshield
header. This allows for hand clearance and proper closure of the top.
To close the convertible top:
1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop. The ignition must be on. It is
recommended that the engine is running when opening the top to
prevent draining the battery.
2. Press and hold the convertible
top switch until the windows lower
completely and the top unfolds and
moves forward toward the
windshield header.
Make sure the latch handles are
pulled down and in the fully opened
position before the top and the
windshield header make contact.
3. Continue pressing the convertible top switch to close the top
completely. The top must be flush with the header.
4. Pull down on the drivers latch
handle and rotate it all the way
forward into the windshield header.
5. Press the latch handle up into
the stowed position to secure the
latch.
6. Pull down on the passengers side
latch handle and rotate it all the
way forward into the windshield
header.
7. Press the latch handle up into the stowed position to secure the latch.
Note:
If the top has been open for an extended period of time or if the
temperature is low, the top material may shrink slightly. If this happens,
pull on the latch handles or the center grip to fasten to top
