GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
(Continued)
If the temperature is below 72°F (24°C) and/or
the top has been folded down for a period of
time, the top will appear to have shrunk when
you raise it, making it difficult to put up. This is
caused by a natural contraction of the vinyl or
acrylic materials of the fabric top.
Place the vehicle in a warm area. Pull steadily
on the top fabric. The vinyl will stretch back to its
original size and the top can then be installed. If
the temperature is 41°F (5°C) or below, do not
attempt to put the top down or roll the rear or
side curtains.
CAUTION!
The soft top is not designed to carry any addi
-
tional loads such as roof racks, spare tires,
building, hunting or camping supplies, and/or
luggage, etc. Also, it was not designed as a
structural member of the vehicle and, thus,
cannot properly carry any additional loads
other than environmental (rain, snow, etc.).
CAUTION!
Do not run a fabric top through an auto
-
matic car wash. Window scratches and wax
build up may result.
Do not lower the top when the temperature
is below 41°F (5°C). Damage to the top
may result.
Do not move your vehicle until the top has
been either fully attached to the windshield
frame, or fully lowered.
Follow the proper steps for cleaning and
caring for your vehicle’s fabric top
445.
Do not use any tools (screwdrivers, etc.) to
pry or force any of the clamps, clips, or
retainers securing the soft top. Do not force
or pry the soft top framework when opening
or closing. Damage to the top may result.
Failure to follow these cautions may cause
interior water damage, stains, or mildew on
the top material:
It is recommended that the top be free of
water prior to opening it. Operating the top,
opening a door or lowering a window while
the top is wet may allow water to drip into
the vehicle's interior.
Careless handling and storage of the soft
top may damage the seals, causing water
to leak into the vehicle's interior.
The soft top must be positioned properly to
ensure sealing. Improper installation can
cause water to leak into the vehicle's inte
-
rior.
CAUTION!
