Press and hold the switch in the Top Up
position until the operation of raising the top
and latching it is complete, which is indicated
by the system raising the windows and dis-
playing ªTOP DONEº in the odometer or ªCONVERT-
IBLE TOP COMPLETEº in the EVIC (if equipped).
Using the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) Transmitter
You cannot use the Power Top button on the RKE
transmitter to raise the power convertible top. You must
use the Power Top switch inside the vehicle to perform
this operation.
Manually
Closing the power convertible top manually is a compli-
cated and physically demanding procedure, and it re-
quires a special tool to do so. In the event that you
experience a malfunction when operating the power
convertible top:1. Read all of the Notes, Cautions, and Warning found
under ªPower Convertible Top Usage Precautionsº to
verify all operating conditions are met.
2. Check for Operation and Warning Messages as de-
scribed under ªPower Convertible Top Operation &
Warning Messages.º If applicable, perform the related
action to correct the condition present.
3. If Steps 1 and 2 do not resolve the problem, see your
authorized dealer for service.
Wind Stop
The Wind Stop installs in the backseat area of the vehicle.
The Wind Stop will not interfere with power top opera-
tion. Therefore, it can remain installed when the top is up.
However, when not in use, the Wind Stop folds to allow
for convenient storage underneath the cargo protector in
the trunk.
