Soft Top Manual Closing
Operation
In case of need, the soft top may be
closed manually.
WARNING!
•Manual operation of the soft top for
emergency closing requires the
presence of two persons in order to
prevent personal injury or damage
to the car.
•When moving the soft top by hand,
take the greatest care as its movable
parts could squeeze or trap objects
or parts of your body.
CAUTION!
The emergency procedure described
below must be used to close the soft
top if it is not possible for you to
contact theAuthorized Maserati

keep the soft top open.
If the failure occurs when the opening
procedure is already in progress, do
not attempt to complete the
procedure - close back the soft top
manually according to the following
instructions. After depressurizing the
hydraulic circuit by turning the key in
the ignition switch toSTOP (OFF)
position, perform the emergency
procedure starting from the point at
which the opening stage jammed.
WARNING!
After depressurizing the system, the
soft top will move freely. Therefore, if
it is not in a balanced position, it will
close or open as a consequence of its
weight. Take the greatest care to
avoid being squeezed or trapped by
its levers and mechanisms.
Before Starting
