Opening the Roof
When opening the roof, make sure objects
inside the vehicle are not blown away by
the wind. Secure all loose objects inside
before driving with the roof down.
1. Park the vehicle on level ground in a
safe place where the vehicle does not
obstruct traffic.
Shift the shift lever to neutral on a
manual transmission vehicle.
Shift the selector lever to P on an
automatic transmission vehicle.
Apply the parking brake.
2. Make sure that the trunk is closed.
3. Start the engine to prevent the battery
from going dead.
4. Continue pressing the retractable
hardtop switch in the open direction
until the roof opening operation is
completed. When the opening
operation is completed, a beep sound is
activated and the operation indicator
light turns off.
