l

Before lowering or raising the
convertible top, stop in a safe place off
the right-of-way and park on a level
surface.

l

Make sure nothing is on the convertible
top or near the back window when
raising or lowering the convertible top.
Even small objects may interfere and
cause damage.

l

When lowering the convertible top,
make sure objects inside the vehicle are
not blown away by the wind.

l

Secure all loose objects inside before
driving with the convertible top down.

l

To help prevent burglary or vandalism
and to ensure that the passenger
compartment stays dry, close the
convertible top securely and lock both
doors when leaving the vehicle.

l

Do not drive through an automatic car
wash; it may damage the convertible
top.

l

Do not raise or lower the convertible
top when the temperature is below 5 Â°C
(41 Â°F) ; this will damage the
convertible top material.

l

Do not lower the convertible top when
it's wet. If the convertible top dries
while folded, it will deteriorate and
shrink.

l

Lowering the convertible top while it's
wet can also cause water to drip into
the passenger compartment.

l

Do not raise or lower the convertible
top in a strong wind as it could damage
the convertible top or cause an
unexpected accident.
