An aero-acoustic deflector is available to improve  the  acoustic  comfort  of  occupants  of Â
t
he  vehicle  in  certain  driving  conditions Â
(high
 speed),  by  reducing  the  turbulence  in Â
t
he  passenger  compartment  resulting  from  the Â
d
isplacement  of  air.
On
 opening  the  roof,  the  aero-acoustic Â
d
eflector  is  deployed.
On
 closing  the  roof,  the  deflector  folds  away Â
au
tomatically.
Aero-acoustic deflector Precautions for use
Never place objects on the roof, w
hether  open  or  closed.
Never
 sit  on  or  place  objects  on  the Â
t
ransverse roof support when the roof
is
 open. In
 the  event  of  prolonged  storage  of  the  v
ehicle  outside,  it  is  recommended  that Â
t
he  roof  be  protected  with  a  cover.
To
 avoid  damaging  the  roof,  do Â
n
ot  open  it  under  snowy  or  frosty Â
c
onditions.
Never
 use  sharp  tools  to  remove  ice  or Â
a
ccumulations  of  snow  on  the  roof.
To
 limit  the  creation  of  folds  in  the  roof Â
f
abric,  it  is  recommended  that  the  roof Â
n
ot  be  left  open  for  long  periods.
The
 vehicle's  air  conditioning  system Â
s
hould  not  be  operated  while  the  roof Â
i
s  open. It
 is  recommended  that  the  roof  be Â
c
losed  when  the  vehicle  is  left  parked.
Even
 if  the  roof  is  closed,  it  is  prudent Â
n
ot  to  leave  any  valuable  objects  inside Â
t
he  vehicle.
When you leave the vehicle, switch off
the
 ignition  and  remove  the  key  (take Â
t
he  electronic  key  with  you)  to  avoid  any Â
u
nwanted  operation  of  the  roof.
