Press the switch forward.
Operation while driving
The convertible top can be opened or closed
while driving at vehicle speeds up to approx.
20 mph/30 km/h.
Pay close attention to the traffic
When operating the convertible top while
driving, pay extra attention to the traffic to
avoid an accident. If possible, do not move the
convertible top while driving in reverse because
your view to the rear is severely limited during
the procedure. Do not operate the convertible
top while the vehicle is moving through curves,
on uneven road surfaces, or in wind.
For better control
The LED lights up while the convertible top
is activated until the top is fully opened or
closed.
The LED flashes after the switch is released.
The opening or closing procedure is not yet
fully completed. The sequence can be con‐
tinued in the desired direction by pushing
or pulling the switch.
The "convertible top not locked" indicator
lamp lights up and a message appears on
the Control Display.
Interruption
Danger
A convertible top that is not fully opened
or closed is a source of danger.
The automatic sequence of movements is inter‐
rupted immediately if the switch for convertible
top operation is released. The sequence can be
continued in the desired direction by pushing
or pulling the switch.
When the opening or closing procedure is inter‐
rupted because the switch is released, the
convertible top remains in the position in which
it stopped for a few seconds before it slowly
moves to a stable position. The sequence can
be continued using the switch.
The opening or closing procedure is also inter‐
rupted when it is blocked mechanically. To be
able to reactivate the convertible top in this
case:
1. Switch the ignition off and on again.
2. Press the switch to continue the sequence
in the desired direction.
Opening and closing procedure
Do not interrupt the closing procedure
Do not interrupt and resume the closing
procedure several times in close succession as
this could damage the convertible top mecha‐
nism.
If, after having been activated a number of
times in close succession, the convertible top
can only be moved in one direction, the
convertible top system is overheated. Let the
system cool for approx. 4 minutes.
If the battery was disconnected, for example to
change the battery or to put the vehicle into
storage, reinitialize, refer to page 42, the power
windows; otherwise, the windows will not be
lowered, and it will not be possible to open the
convertible top.
Convenient opening and closing
Convenient operation is possible via the remote
control, refer to page 32, and the door lock, re‐
fer to page 34.
Manual closing in case of electrical
malfunction
Only close the convertible top manually if
there is an electrical malfunction
Only close the convertible top manually if this is
absolutely necessary; never open it manually.
Damage may occur if incorrectly operated. The
closing procedure must be fully completed;
otherwise, there is a risk of injury or damage.
