Folding the Top Down

Open the zippers at the rear of the Side Curtains. Pull the plastic strip on the
bottom of the Side Curtains out of the Belt Rails. Leave the rear corners of
the top attached to the Corner Belt Rails. Unfasten the hook and loop strips
at the front of the Side Curtains, releasing the Side Curtains from the Vertical
Retainer. Fold the Side Curtains up onto the top and release the hook and loop
fasteners on the fl aps, above the doors. Unsnap the top from the rear bow.
Release the locking tabs on the Bow Releases from the holes in the bow and
slide the rear bow down to the Bow Mounts. Release the Horizontal Rod from
the Windshield Bracket. Remove the Vertical Rod from the Vertical Retainer
Mount and lay the bow assembly down on the rear of the vehicle.
Unfasten the top from the windshield and lay it down on the body. Make sure
that the rear corners of the top are tucked under the rear bow. Fold the top in
half from front to back and continue folding until the top is about 1 foot wide at
the rear of the vehicle. Secure the top by clipping the Bow Tie Downs into the
Side Belt Rails.

Removal of Soft Top for Open Air Driving

When operating the vehicle with the fabric top removed, it is very important that
the supporting hardware system be disconnected from the windshield bracket
and folded fl at to the rear of the vehicle. The vertical and horizontal rods should
be snapped into the plastic clips located on the inside of both bow mount
brackets. Wrap the elastic straps around the bows and insert the plastic strip
into the side belt rail. Never operate the vehicle with the fabric removed and the
hardware in the fully erected position.
