Aero-acoustic deflector
Operating the roof when
driving

If a roof operation is star ted before the vehicle'sspeed is above about 70 mph (120 km/h),exceeding this speed limitation leads to the
following situations, depending on the type of
roof operation in progress:


- an operation in progress in zone A
is stopped,

- an opening operation in progress in zone B
is continued through to completion,
For reasons of safety, never operate the roof openingandclosing control above about 70 mph (120 km/h).
On opening the roof, an aero-acoustic deflector
is deployed in order to reduce swirling in the passenger compar tment resulting from air movement, and preser ve the acoustic comfort
of occupants. On closing the roof, the deflector folds away automatically.
) With the roof open, this deflector can befolded away manually and secured at itscentre: press vertically down on the plate
at the top of the deflector and clip it in the
cut-out. ) To release and deploy the deflector
manually, press ver tically down on the plate to unclip it from the cut-out and pull it
gently towards you.
