• If the top is three-quarter of the way open, you can
close the top if vehicle speeds are above 50 mph
(80 km/h).
• If the top is fully open and the vehicle is traveling at

WARNING!
The convertible top does not provide the structural
protection that a reinforced metal roof does and the
fabric top cannot be expected to prevent the ejection
of the occupants in a collision. Therefore, it is
important that all occupants wear their seat belts at
all times. Death or serious injuries could occur if
you are ejected from the vehicle during a collision.
