vehicle, or with access to an unlocked
vehicle. Never leave the key fob in or near
the vehicle, or in a location accessible to chil-
dren. Do not leave the ignition of a vehicle
equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go in the ACC
or ON/RUN mode. Occupants, particularly
unattended children, can become entrapped
by the power top while operating the power
top switch. Such entrapment may result in
serious injury or death.

thrown from a vehicle with an open power
top. You could also be seriously injured or
killed. Always fasten your seat belt properly
and make sure all passengers are also
properly secured.
Do not allow small children to operate the
power top. Never allow your fingers, other
body parts, or any object, to project through
the power top opening. Injury may result.

drive, have an authorized dealer service the
