With the top open and the vehicle travelling, the
speech recognition system along with the dial num-
ber command, may not be recognized because of the
background noise if equipped.
With the top installed at speeds higher than 80 mph
(130 km/h), optimal comfort may not be achieved.
The top fabric is treated with a special water repellent,
waterproof product. The water-repellent properties
will degrade in time with exposure to the weather
elements. Observe the following instructions for
washing:
Use of specific products is recommended for washing
the top.
Bird droppings must be washed off immediately and
thoroughly as the acid they contain is particularly
aggressive.
Never use high-pressure washing systems.
Hand washing is recommended; modern automatic
washing systems equipped with soft brushes which
do not apply excessive pressure and employ specific
soft top products may be used.
When using steam washers or high-pressure power
washers, maintain a suitable distance and do not
exceed a maximum temperature of 140 °F (60 °C).
Damage, alterations and water infiltrations may oc-
cur if the distance is too small.
If a water jet is used, direct away from the edges of
the fabric to prevent water infiltrations.
Never use alcohol, petroleum products, chemical
products, detergents, stain removers, wax, solvents,
and “wash and polish” products.
Remove as much dirt from the surface of the top with
a soft brush or vacuum cleaner before washing it.
This operation will considerably improve the final
result. In lack of specific products, use water and
mild soap applied with a sponge preferably in the
shade for washing. Rinse the top with clean water
after having eliminated all the stains.
Rinse immediately to remove soap to prevent stains.
Leave the vehicle in the shade after washing avoid-
ing direct sunlight.
