Lowering The Windshield And Removing Side Bars - Jeep 2013 Wrangler Owner's Manual

Outside rearview mirrors are mounted on the
doors. If you choose to remove the doors, see
your authorized dealer for a replacement cowl-
mounted outside mirror. Federal law requires
outside mirrors on vehicles for on-road use.
WARNING!
Carefully follow these warnings to help pro-
tect against personal injury:
• Do not drive your vehicle on-road with the
windshield down.
• Do not drive your vehicle unless the wind-
shield is securely fastened, either up or
down.
• Eye protection, such as goggles, should
be worn at all times when the windshield is
down.

• Be sure that you carefully follow the in-
structions for raising the windshield. Make
sure that the folding windshield, windshield
wipers, side bars, and all associated hard-
ware and fasteners are correctly and
tightly assembled before driving your ve-
hicle. Failure to follow these instructions
may prevent your vehicle from providing
you and your passengers protection in
some accidents.
• If you remove the doors, store them out-
side the vehicle. In the event of an acci-
dent, a loose door may cause personal
injury.
