7. Check to make sure that the handles are locked inplace.

•
Do not attach a roof rack on the soft top.
• Do not keep the soft top folded for long periods of
time.
• Do not remove ice from the top with a sharp object.
• Do not put objects on the top. The object could fall if
the top is operated causing damage and injury.
• The cooled air flow into the passenger compartment
may decrease if the automatic climate control system
is on and the top is not all the way closed.

•With the top open and the vehicle travelling, the
speech recognition system along with the dial num-
ber command, may not be recognized because of the
background noise if equipped.
• With the top installed at speeds higher than 80 mph
(130 km/h), optimal comfort may not be achieved.
The top fabric is treated with a special water repellent,
waterproof product. The water-repellent properties
will degrade in time with exposure to the weather
elements. Observe the following instructions for
washing:
• Use of specific products is recommended for washing
the top.
• Bird droppings must be washed off immediately and
thoroughly as the acid they contain is particularly
aggressive.
• Never use high-pressure washing systems.
• Hand washing is recommended; modern automatic
washing systems equipped with soft brushes which
do not apply excessive pressure and employ specific
soft top products may be used. •
When using steam washers or high-pressure power
washers, maintain a suitable distance and do not
exceed a maximum temperature of 140 °F (60 °C).
Damage, alterations and water infiltrations may oc-
cur if the distance is too small.
• If a water jet is used, direct away from the edges of
the fabric to prevent water infiltrations.
• Never use alcohol, petroleum products, chemical
products, detergents, stain removers, wax, solvents,
and “wash and polish” products.
• Remove as much dirt from the surface of the top with
a soft brush or vacuum cleaner before washing it.
This operation will considerably improve the final
result. In lack of specific products, use water and
mild soap applied with a sponge preferably in the
shade for washing. Rinse the top with clean water
after having eliminated all the stains.
• Rinse immediately to remove soap to prevent stains.
• Leave the vehicle in the shade after washing avoid-
ing direct sunlight.

•Use specific waterproofing products for fabric tops
and follow the instructions on the product container
for best results.
• The rubber seals of the top must be washed with
water only. Apply talcum power or use specific
rubber care products (silicone spray) if the seals are
dry or partially stuck.
DECKLID
To Open The Decklid

the center of the decklid to ensure the decklid
latch is fully engaged.

compartment (located rear of the engine) can
reach temperatures above 149 °F (65 °C). Do not
transport objects in the luggage compartment that
may be damaged at such temperatures. Do not
place aerosol cans in the luggage compartment. To open the decklid:
1. Open the driver’s side door.

other material. Do not place a fuse inside a circuit
breaker cavity or vice versa. Failure to use proper
fuses may result in serious personal injury, fire
and/or property damage.
• Before replacing a fuse, make sure that the igni-
tion is off and that all the other services are
switched off and/or disengaged.

INSTALLATION OF RADIO TRANSMITTING
EQUIPMENT
Special design considerations are incorporated into this
vehicle’s electronic system to provide immunity to radio
frequency signals. Mobile two-way radios and telephone
equipment must be installed properly by trained person-
nel. The following must be observed during installation.
The positive power connection should be made directly
to the battery and fused as close to the battery as possible.
The negative power connection should be made to body
sheet metal adjacent to the negative battery connection.
This connection should not be fused.
Antennas for two-way radios should be mounted on the
roof or the rear area of the vehicle. Care should be used
in mounting antennas with magnet bases. Magnets may
affect the accuracy or operation of the compass on
vehicles so equipped.
The antenna cable should be as short as practical and
routed away from the vehicle wiring when possible. Use
only fully shielded coaxial cable.
Carefully match the antenna and cable to the radio to
ensure a low Standing Wave Ratio (SWR).Mobile radio equipment with output power greater than
normal may require special precautions.
All installations should be checked for possible interfer-
ence between the communications equipment and the
vehicle’s electronic systems.
WARNING:
Operating, servicing and maintaining a
passenger vehicle or off-road highway
motor vehicle can expose you to chemicals
including engine exhaust, carbon monoxide,
phthalates, and lead, which are known to
the State of California to cause cancer and
birth defects or other reproductive harm.
To minimize exposure, avoid breathing
exhaust, do not idle the engine except as
necessary, service your vehicle in a
well-ventilated area and wear gloves or
wash your hands frequently when servicing
your vehicle. For more information go to
