2006 Jeep Wrangler Owner's Manual - Page 133

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 133 Do not drive your vehicle on-road with the windshield down and the side bars removed as you lose the protection these structural elements can provide. NOTE: Before lowering windshield, disconnect the electrical connector for the inside Compass/Temperature mirror (if equipped). NOTE: The windshield wiper arm and blade assemblies must be removed prior to lowering the windshield, this can be done by sliding out the attachment clip and gently rocking the arm until it loosens, the wiper arms must be returned to their "Park" positions when the windshield is returned to its upright position. If required for certain off-road uses, the side bars can be removed and the windshield folded down. However, the protection afforded by these features is then lost. If you remove the side bars and fold down the windshield, drive slowly and cautiously. It is recommended that the speed of the vehicle be limited to 10 mph (16 km/h), with low range operation preferred, if you are driving off-road with the windshield folded down. Raise the windshield and reinstall the side bars as soon as the task that required their removal is completed and before you return to on-road driving. Both you and your passenger should wear seat belts at all times, on-road and off-road, regardless of whether the windshield is raised or folded down. Outside rear view mirrors are mounted on the doors. If you choose to remove the doors, see your authorized dealer for a replacement cowl-mounted outside mirror. Federal law requires outside mirrors on vehicles for on-road use. NOTE: If the doors are removed, the courtesy lights will remain on. To turn these lights off, remove fuse #4 in the fuse panel. Refer to "Fuse Panel" in Section 7 of this manual. (See page 305 for more information.) 3
