[2] - To Raise the Roof Manually if the Tonneau Lid has Unlocked
and the Roof is Underneath
Do not allow the Tonneau lid to rest on the Roof fabric.
Manually raise the Tonneau lid. Continue to hold the Tonneau lid
while raising the Roof. When the Roof rear has cleared the Tonneau
lid, let the Tonneau lid slowly fall to close. Slowly raise the Roof to
meet the top of the windshield. The rear of the Roof will lay in
position on the edge of the Tonneau lid.
Rear Quarter Windows
Depending on the reason why the Roof fails, the rear quarter
windows may not close when raising the Roof manually.
When the Roof has been manually raised and
locked, set the ignition to ON and attempt to
close the rear quarter windows by operating
the Roof raise switch.
