Handles In Locked Position
NOTE:
• Do not attach a roof rack on the soft top.
• Do not keep the soft top folded for long periods
of time.
• Do not remove ice from the top with a sharp
object.
• Do not put objects on the top. The object could
fall if the top is operated causing damage and
injury.
• The cooled air flow into the passenger compart-
ment may decrease if the automatic climate
control system is on and the top is not all the
way closed.
• With the top open and the vehicle travelling, the
speech recognition system along with the dial
number command, may not be recognized be-
cause 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:
NOTE:
• Use of specific products is recommended for
washing the top.
• Bird droppings must be washed off immedi-
ately and thoroughly as the acid they contain is
particularly aggressive.
• Never use high-pressure washing systems.
