CAUTION!
The hard top is not designed to carry any
additional loads, such as after-market roof
racks, spare tires, building materials,
hunting or camping supplies, etc. For
information on optional Mopar accessory
roof racks, refer to “Roof Luggage Rack” in
this section.
Do not move your vehicle until the top has
been either fully attached to the front
header, sport bar, and body side, or fully
removed.
Failure to follow these cautions may cause
int
erior water damage, stains or mildew:
It is recommended that the top be free of
water prior to panel removal. Removing the
top, opening a door, or lowering a window
while the top is wet may allow water to drip
into the vehicle’s interior.
The hard top assembly must be positioned
properly to ensure sealing. Improper instal-
lation can cause water to leak into the
veh
icle’s interior.
Careless handling and storage of the
removable roof panels may damage the
seals, causing water to leak into the
vehicle’s interior.
The front panel(s) must be positioned
properly to ensure sealing. Improper instal-
lation can cause water to leak into the
veh
icle’s interior.
