GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

Secure all loose objects inside before
driving with the convertible top down.
To help prevent theft or vandalism
and to ensure that the passenger
compartment stays dry, close the
convertible top securely and lock both
doors when leaving the vehicle.
The soft top is made of high quality
material and if it is not maintained
correctly, the material could harden,
becomes stained, or have an uneven
gloss.
Lowering the convertible top while
it's wet can also cause water to drip
into the cabin.
The power windows go down
automatically in conjunction with the
convertible top opening/closing.
However, this is a function for improving
the operability, and it does not mean
there is a problem. If the vehicle battery
is disconnected for vehicle maintenance
or other reasons, the power windows
will not go down automatically. If the
power windows do not go down, the
automatic open/close mechanism for
the windows must be reset.
The windblocker reduces the amount
of wind coming into the cabin from
behind when driving with the
convertible top opened.
Before starting the vehicle make sure
the convertible top is correctly locked.
Caution!
Before opening the convertible top,
make sure the rear window defroster
switch is turned off. Otherwise the heat
generated from the window defroster
could damage the convertible top and the
internal material.
Make sure nothing is on the convertible
top or near the back window when raising
or lowering the convertible top. Even small
objects may interfere and cause damage.
Do not drive through an automatic car
wash; it may damage the convertible top.
Do not raise or lower the convertible top
when the temperature is below 41 °F
(5 °C); this will damage the convertible top
material.
Do not lower the convertible top when
it's wet. If the convertible top dries while
folded, it will deteriorate and mold.
Do not raise or lower the convertible top
in a strong wind as it could damage the
convertible top or cause an unexpected
accident.
ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING
Power Steering
Electric power steering is only operable
when the engine is running.
If the engine is off or if the power
steering system is inoperable, you can
still steer, but it requires more physical
effort.
If the steering feels stiffer than usual
during normal driving or the steering
vibrates, contact your Authorized
Dealer.
The
warning light notifies the driver
of system abnormalities and operation
conditions.
Note: Never hold the steering wheel to
the extreme left or right for more than
five seconds with the engine running.
This could damage the power steering
system.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

ONBOARD
DIAGNOSTIC
SYSTEM — OBD II
Your vehicle is equipped with a
sophisticated Onboard Diagnostic
system called OBD II. This system
monitors the performance of the
emissions, engine, and automatic
transmission control systems. When
these systems are operating properly,
your vehicle will provide excellent
performance and fuel economy, as well
as engine emissions well within current
government regulations.
If any of these systems require service,
the OBD II system will turn on the
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL). It will
also store diagnostic codes and other
information to assist your service
technician in making repairs. Although
your vehicle will usually be drivable and
not need towing, see your authorized
dealer for service as soon as possible.
Caution!
Prolonged driving with the MIL on could
cause further damage to the emission
control system. It could also affect fuel
economy and driveability. The vehicle must
be serviced before any emissions tests can
be performed.
If the MIL is flashing while the engine is
running, severe catalytic converter damage
and power loss will soon occur. Immediate
service is required.
Onboard Diagnostic
System (OBD II)
Cybersecurity
Your vehicle is required to have an
Onboard Diagnostic system (OBD II)
and a connection port to allow access
to information related to the
performance of your emissions
controls. Authorized service technicians
may need to access this information to
assist with the diagnosis and service of
your vehicle and emissions system.
Warning!
ONLY an authorized service technician
should connect equipment to the OBD II
connection port in order to diagnose or
service your vehicle.
If unauthorized equipment is connected
to the OBD II connection port, such as a
driver-behavior tracking device, it may:
Be possible that vehicle systems,
including safety related systems, could be
impaired or a loss of vehicle control could
occur that may result in an accident
involving serious injury or death.
Access, or allow others to access,
information stored in your vehicle systems,
including personal information.
For further information, refer to “Privacy
Practices” and “Uconnect
CyberSecurity” in “All About Uconnect
Access” in your Owner’s Manual Radio
Supplement and “Cybersecurity” in
“Multimedia”.
