please check: Was the ignition switched on
and the handbrake applied? Are the electrical
fuses defective?
Please observe the chapter "ELECTRICAL
SYSTEM" on page 265.
Warning!
There is a danger of injury and risk of damage
during emergency operation. There is a

at all moveable convertible top parts which
could cause serious personal injury.
Take great care when performing emergency
operation.
Do not operate the convertible top during and
after emergency operation.

second joint rod.
During emergency operation, ensure that the
paint is not damaged.
