GUID-665F5476-1959-421B-B08B-C946E4860770The retractable hard top on this vehicle is
electrically operated. You can fully open or
close the retractable hard top only by
pushing the operating switch located on
the center console.
The retractable hard top operating switch
must be operated under all of the following
conditions.
. When the vehicle is stopped
. When the engine is running .
When the separator is fixed in the
position separating the roof storage
area and the trunk room
. When the trunk lid is closed
CAUTION
Always keep the engine running while
operating the retractable hard top. Even if
the engine stops, the retractable hard top
will also operate when the ignition switch is
in the ON position, but be sure to run the
engine to prevent battery discharge.
Be sure to follow the operating instructions
and all of the warnings and cautions in this
section.
Improper operation of the retractable hard
top could cause a system malfunction,
damage or deterioration of the retractable
hard top material and related parts.
WARNING
. Park the vehicle in a safe and level
location and apply the parking brake.
. Make sure the parking area is clear of
obstacles and there is enough clearance
RETRACTABLE HARD TOP

over the retractable hard top (for exam-
ple, in a garage or a covered area). More
than approximately 6.6 ft (2 m) from the
ground and more than approximately 3.3
ft (1 m) from the rear is required to open
or close the retractable hard top safely.
Otherwise, the top may damage any
objects above it while moving. The
retractable hard top operating system
could also be damaged.
. Do not operate the retractable hard top
in a strong wind. It could be blown by
the wind, striking someone or damaging
the retractable hard top.
. When the retractable hard top is re-
tracted, do not allow anyone to stand up
or extend any portion of their body out
of the opening while the vehicle is in
motion or while the retractable hard top
is being operated.
. In an accident you could be thrown from
the vehicle with an open retractable hard
top if you do not use seat belts. Always
use seat belts and proper child re-
straints.
. Do not place any objects on or near the
retractable hard top operating switch.
Unintentional operation of the retract- able hard top may cause injuries or an
accident if the objects press the switch.
. Do not put your fingers or hands in the
gap between the rear seats and the rear
parcel shelf or the side flaps. Doing so
may cause injury if the retractable hard
top is operated.
CAUTION
.Do not operate the retractable hard top
when the temperature is below 328F
(08C). This may result in damage to the
retractable hard top material or operat-
ing system.
. Remove water drops, snow, ice or sand
from the retractable hard top, and dry
the surface of the retractable hard top
completely before opening it.
. Do not open the retractable hard top
when it is wet or damp. If the retractable
hardtop and rear window are wet, water
might get inside of the vehicle. To avoid
this, wipe off any water drops before
opening the retractable hard top.
. Do not place any objects between the
hard rail and the structure. Doing so could interfere with retractable hard top
operation and cause damage to the
retractable hard top operating system
or the objects.
. Do not place any objects on the upper
area of the windshield glass or the hard
rail when the retractable hard top is fully
opened. Doing so could interfere with
retractable hard top operation and cause
damage.
. Do not place any object between the
retractable hard top when the retract-
able hard top is stored in the storage
space. Doing so may interfere with
retractable hard top operation and cause
damage.
. Do not place anything on the retractable
hard top, rear parcel shelf, side flaps and
trunk lid. Even small items may interfere
with the retractable hard top operation
and could cause damage to the retract-
able hard top or the vehicle body.
. Do not place anything in the retractable
hard top storage area. The retractable
hard top will not fit there properly, and
this could damage the retractable hard
top and/or the vehicle body.

could allow dangerous exhaust gases to
be drawn into the vehicle. See “Exhaust
gas (carbon monoxide)” (P.5-3) of this
manual.
. Closely supervise children when they are
around cars to prevent them from play-
ing and becoming locked in the trunk
