CLOSING THE TOP
1. Apply the parking brake and move the selec-
tor lever to the P (Park) position (for the
automatic transmission model) or the shift
lever to the N (Neutral) position (for the
manual transmission model).
2. Start the engine.
3. Depress the foot brake pedal.
4. Push CLOSE on the soft top operating
switch and hold it until the top is fully closed.
The soft top indicator light will illuminate
while the top is in motion. (In about 20
seconds, the closing movement will fin-
ish.)
Windows will automatically be fully
opened.
The passenger seatback will automatically
move forward, unless the seatback tilt
cancel switch is in the CANCEL position.
It will return to the original position after
the top operation. (See “Automatic pas-
senger seatback tilt function” shown on
the previous page of this section.)
5. Release the switch when the top is fully
closed. (The indicator light, which is illumi-
nated, will begin to flash.)
6. Securely engage the front edge of the top to
the vehicle body with the top latch lever. (The
indicator light turns off.)
IF THE TOP DOES NOT OPEN OR
CLOSE ELECTRICALLY
If you cannot operate the soft top with the
operating switch, first check whether all the
following operating conditions are completed:
foot brake pedal is depressed
vehicle is stopped
ignition switch is ON (Run the engine when
operating the top.)
If the top still does not move under the above
conditions or has any system malfunction, see a
NISSAN dealer as soon as possible. When you
must close the top by yourself, in the event of
emergency or when an immediate dealer service
is not available, close the top manually according
to the procedures shown in this section.
When closing the soft top manually:
Move the vehicle to a safe place, away from
traffic.
Two people should perform this procedure,
as some of the top parts are extremely heavy.
The top cannot be opened manually.
WARNING
Do not drive with the top partially
opened.
If the top cannot be operated prop-
erly, see a NISSAN dealer as soon as
possible to have your vehicle
checked.
