UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 53 CAUTION! When opening and closing the convertible top, make sure that: • There is sufficient clearance of at least 6 ft. (1.8m) for the convertible top to move up. • Nothing is placed on the tonneau cover. • The outside temperature is above 32°F (0°C). Otherwise the convertible top and other parts of the vehicle could be damaged. To Lower The Top: WARNING! Top operation can be suspended for a maximum of 10 minutes. Thirty seconds before the end of this period an audible warning will begin to sound continuously. At the end of this period, hydraulic pressure will be released and the top and tonneau cover will slowly collapse. In order to re-initialize the top cycle, the tonneau cover must first be moved and held in its full open position manually. The convertible top should then be carefully lowered into its storage compartment, and the tonneau closed. Hands should be kept away from moving parts of the top and top compartment mechanisms to avoid injury during this operation and as hydraulic pressure is reestablished. The hydraulic pressure can be reestablished by turning the ignition to the ON/ RUN position and pushing down on the convertible top switch twice. Refer to Convertible Top Emergency Operation in the What To Do In Emergencies section of this manual. 3 CAUTION! Use caution when putting items into the storage compartment with the top in the closed position. The tonneau cover extensions are exposed and can be damaged if luggage or other items are pushed too far into the storage compartment.
