To position again the soft top on the car,
proceed as follows:
❒ open the doors;
❒ take the soft top from the luggage
compartment and place it in the centre
line; the front side can be recognised by
the presence of the safety visor fig. 110;
❒ unroll the soft top inserting it under
the spoiler and making sure that it is
correctly positioned;
❒ turn the rail upwards and insert in the
side centring pins of the soft top in the
respective housings
fig. 113 on the car being careful to insert
the front pin and the rear pin;❒ press the side devices 2 inwards
fig. 114 and turn the rail downwards;
❒ leave the handles and complete the
rail rotation pressing it until you hear the
closing click of the lock;
❒ check that the devices 2 are
completely closed fig. 115;
❒ proceed in the same way for the other
side of the soft top;

❒ position the two central devices
1 fig. 110 in the suitable housing inside the
car and rotate them by ¼ turn clockwise
to lock them. Check the correct insertion of
the pins into their seats and make sure the
grab ring is in horizontal position.
The fixing is carried out correctly and the
soft top is ensured only when the ring is
located in a horizontal position
(not vertical, or at 45°).
IMPORTANT NOTES
❒ It is advisable to install the soft top
after parking the car.
The closed top effectively protects the
car from rain and from theft.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
CIGAR LIGHTER
The cigar lighter gets very hot. Handle it carefully and make sure that children don’t use it: risk of fire and/or burns.
ASHTRAY
Do not use the ashtray as a waste paper basket: it may catch fire in contact with cigarette stubs.
WHEELS AND TYRES
The road holding qualities of the car also depend on the correct inflation pressure of the tyres. If tyre pressure is too low, the tyre may
overheat and be severely damaged as a result.
Do not switch tyres from the left to the right side and vice versa, in order to prevent inversion of the rotation direction.
Do not repaint alloy wheel rims at temperatures higher than 150°C.
The mechanical characteristics of the wheels might be compromised.
The car is always equipped with front and rear wheels of different dimensions. It is not therefore possible to move the wheels from the
front to the back and vice versa.
ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY THE OWNER
Take care when fitting additional spoilers or non-standard alloy wheels: they could reduce the ventilation of the brakes and affect
efficiency in sharp, repeated braking or on long descents. Make sure that nothing obstructs the pedal stroke (mats, etc.).
CATALYTIC SILENCER
Under operating conditions, the catalytic converter becomes very hot. Therefore, do not park the car on flammable materials
(grass, dry leaves, pine needles etc.) to avoid the risk of fire.
