measure ensuring that the key cannot be turned to
position 2 and the soft top switch is without
function should anybody push the switch forward

hands are at that moment between roof and car
body they can be badly injured.

To prevent possible accidents, drive the vehicle
only with the hardtop either completely closed and
locked, or fully lowered into its storage
compartment.
