The windows will automatically lower and the convertible
top will lower into the rear of the vehicle. A chime will
sound when the convertible top has lowered completely.
If the radio is on the sound may be muted for a brief time.
If the convertible top is operated multiple times, the
engine should be running to prevent drain on the
vehicle's battery. Under certain conditions, the Driver
Information Center (DIC) may display a message
regarding the power convertible top. See DIC Warnings
and Messages on page 3-53 for more information.

Raising the Power Convertible Top
Notice: If you raise or lower the convertible top
while the vehicle is in motion, you could damage the
top or the top mechanism. The repairs would not be
covered by your warranty. Always put an automatic
transmission in PARK (P) or a manual transmission
in NEUTRAL before raising or lowering the
convertible top.
1. Park on a level surface. The vehicle must be running
or in ACC. Shift an automatic transmission into
PARK (P) and set the parking brake. Shift a manual
transmission into NEUTRAL and set the parking
brake.
2. Make sure the trunk lid is closed and the rear trunk
partition in the rear storage area is in the fastened
upright position, and that no objects are forward
of the divider. See "Rear Trunk Partition" under
Rear Storage Area on page 2-52.
3. Push and hold the top of the power convertible
button. The top will raise and the windows will
lower if they were in the raised position. A chime
will sound when the top is raised completely.
