UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 65 CONVERTIBLE TOP OPERATION - IF EQUIPPED CAUTION! • To insure that no damage occurs, be sure that the vehicle is at a complete stop with the shift lever in the NEUTRAL position before lowering or raising the top. • Do not operate the convertible top with ice or snow build up on the top. Damage to the top may occur. To Lower the Top 1. Lower the window in each door at least 1 in (2.5 cm). 2. Lower both sun visors. WARNING! The convertible top does not provide the structural protection that a reinforced metal roof does, and the fabric top cannot be expected to prevent the ejection of the occupants of a vehicle in a collision. Therefore, it is important that all occupants wear their seat belts at all times when riding in a convertible. Studies have shown that during a collision it is generally safer to remain inside a vehicle than to be ejected from the vehicle. 3
