General information
The fabric convertible top combines reliable
weather protection with simple and convenient
operation.
To ensure that you will continue to enjoy your
MINI Convertible, here are a few tips:
▷ It is advisable that you close the convertible
top when you park the vehicle. Not only
does the closed convertible top protect the
vehicle interior against unanticipated
weather damage, it also offers a certain
amount of theft protection. However, even
when the convertible top is closed, valua‐
bles should only be stored in the locked
cargo area.
▷ Do not attach roof rack systems to the
convertible top.
Safety notes on the convertible top
▷ At temperatures below +14 ℉/-10 ℃,
do not move the convertible top or
else damage could result.
▷ Do not leave the convertible top open for
longer than one day while it is wet; other‐
wise, damage could be caused by the mois‐
ture.
▷ Do not place any objects on the convertible
top; otherwise, they could fall during oper‐
ation of the convertible top and cause
damage or injury.
▷ The convertible top pivots up when it is
opened and closed. When moving the
convertible top in places like garages, en‐
sure that there is a minimum height of
79 inches/2 meters; otherwise, damage
could result.
▷ When the rollover protection system is ex‐
tended, do not move the convertible top
under any circumstances.
▷ Always carry out the convertible top move‐
ment to the end. Driving when the
convertible top is not fully opened or closed
may result in damage or injury.
▷ During opening and closing, ensure that
people cannot be injured by the convertible
top frame or other moving parts. Keep chil‐
dren away from the opening path of the
convertible top.
▷ For safety reasons, only move the
convertible top while the vehicle is station‐
ary, if possible.
