CAUTION
When getting in or out of the vehicle with the roof open, be careful not to hit your head
or body on the corner of the windscreen glass. It may cause an injury.
Do not drive with the roof partially opened; this could damage the roof or cause an
unexpected accident.
Children should not be allowed to play with the retractable fastback switch.
Do not place objects or cargo around the rear roof, rear glass, or the front roof storage
area. Even small objects may interfere and cause damage.
Remove leaves that accumulate on and around the roof. If the leaves are not removed,
they may block the water drainage outlets.
Before opening the roof, make sure the rear window defogger switch (Defroster) is
turned off. Otherwise the heat generated from the defogger could damage the roof and
the internal material.
When opening/closing the roof, verify that there is no obstruction above the

dirt on the roof with water. Otherwise, water may enter the cabin.
Refer to Retractable Fastback Maintenance on page 6-61 .

where the vehicle does not obstruct traf¿ c. If the roof is opened/closed on a slope or
bump, the opening/closing mechanism of the roof may be damaged.
Do not drive through an automatic car wash as it may damage the roof.
Do not open or close the roof forcefully when the ambient temperature is low and the
roof or the surrounding area is frozen as it could damage the roof.
Opening the roof while it is wet can also cause water to drip into the passenger
compartment.
Do not open or close the roof in a strong wind as it could damage the roof.
