To lower the convertible top:
1. Bring vehicle to a complete stop. Key must be in the on position. It is
recommended that the vehicle’s engine is running when lowering the top
to prevent draining the battery.
2. Check the convertible top stowage compartment behind the rear seat
to be sure it is empty and ready to receive the top. Check the
convertible top outer surface to be sure it is free of leaves and debris.
The latch handles must be pulled
downwards fully to allow the
latch to fully rotate into the
open position
3. Unclamp the top from the
windshield header by pulling each
latch handle down and then rotating
the latch to the rear until it clears
the header.
Note:If the top has not been lowered for some time and sticks to the
windshield header, push the front of the top up slightly with your hand
to loosen it.
4. Push the convertible top switch
on the overhead console and hold
until the windows are completely
down and the top is completely
stored.

Raising the convertible top
The convertible topwill not operateunless the vehicle is traveling
under 3 mph (5 km/h).
To raise the convertible top:
1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop. Key must be in the on position.
It is recommended that the vehicle’s engine is running when raising the
top to prevent draining the battery.
2. Push the convertible top switch,
holding it until the windows lower
completely and the top unfolds and
moves forward toward the
windshield header.
3. You can release the convertible
top switch to open both latch
handles before the top meets the
windshield header. Make sure the
latch handles are pulled down fully
for hand clearance and are swung to
the fully open position.
Note:If the top has been in the down position for an extended period or
if the temperature is low, the top material may shrink a small amount.
Pulling down on the latch handles and at the center grip in the header
will make it easier to fasten the top.
4. Continue to use the convertible top switch to raise the top until it has
reached the fully closed position flush to the header.
Note:The two pins under the forward edge of the top should seat
themselves in the matching holes in the header.
The latch handles must be pulled downwards fully to allow the
latch to fully rotate into the closed position.
