Warning!
The soft top is not locked:
•
if the indicator lamp in the soft
top switch does not go out (key
in steering lock position 2),
•
if the indicator lamp blinks
when starting to drive and an
audible warning sounds
simultaneously.
Stop the vehicle and before
continuing to drive, lock the soft
top:
The key should be in steering lock
position 2.
Slide soft top switch forward, if the
soft top is not locked, it may fold
back or forward when driving.
During soft top operation, do not
place your hands near the soft top
frame, upper windshield area or soft
top storage compartment. Serious
personal injury may occur.
For safety reasons, the soft top cannot
be unlocked while driving,
However, if the soft top is not
completely locked, it can be locked
while driving by pushing the
soft/hardtop switch forward.
If the indicator lamp in the soft top
switch blinks while activating the
switch,
•
the battery voltage may be
insufficient - start engine and let
run while activating switch,
•
the system may be overloaded (for
example after lowering or raising
the soft top approx. 5 consecutive
times) - after approx. 2 minutes
the soft top switch may be
activated again.
If the indicator lamp continues to blink,
lock the soft top manually.
See page 119.
Have the system checked at your
authorized MERCEDES-BENZ dealer
as soon as possible.
Note:
If the roll bar was raised automatically,
the process of raising or lowering the
soft top will take somewhat longer, as
the roll bar must first be lowered.
Whenever possible, park vehicle in the
shade as continuous exposure to sun
rays can prematurely deteriorate the
soft top material.
The soft top may become moldy if it is
kept in the storage compartment for an
extended period.
Therefore, we recommend raising and
airing it thoroughly with the side
windows open (do not expose it to the
sun) at regular intervals during the wet
and cold seasons.
