8. Connect plug (4) for rear window
defroster.
Warning!
The raising or lowering
procedure of the soft top is not
completed if the indicator lamp
in the soft top switch:
•
does not go out (with key
in steering lock position 2),
•
blinks when starting to
drive and an alarm sounds.
When safe to do so, immediately
stop the vehicle and lock the soft
top:
•
Turn key in steering lock
to position 2,
•
Slide soft/hardtop switch
forward.
Do not drive the car with the
hardtop not locked, as that could
cause personal injury to you or
your passenger, or personal
injury or property damage to
others.
Note:
For safety reasons, the hardtop can
only be unlocked while the vehicle is
standing still, and within 10 seconds
after turning the key to steering lock
position 2 or beyond.
If the indicator lamp in the soft top
switch blinks while activating the
switch, the battery voltage may be
insufficient - start engine to charge
battery before shutting engine off and
attempting to unlock the roof again.
If the indicator lamp continues to
blink, lock the hardtop manually.
See Index.
Have the system checked at your
authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer as
soon as possible.
