position.
. When the shift lever is in a position
other than the R (Reverse) position.CAUTION
Always keep the engine running
while operating the soft top. The
top will also operate when the igni- tion switch is in the ON position, but
run the engine to prevent a dis-
charged battery.
Be sure to follow the operating instruc-
tions, and all the warnings and cautions in
this section. Improper operation of the
top could cause a system malfunction,
damage, or deterioration of the top
material and related parts.
WARNING
. Park the vehicle in a safe and
level place and apply the parking
brake.
. Make sure the area is clear of
obstacles and there is enough
clearance over the top (for exam-
ple, in a garage or a covered
area). More than approximately
6.6 ft (2 m) from the ground is
required to open or close the top
safely. Otherwise, the top may
damage any objects above it
while moving. The top operating
system could also be damaged.

4-38Center display, heater, air conditioner, audio, phone and voice recognition systems
signals will tend to fade and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interfer-
ence from buildings, large hills or due to
antenna position, usually in conjunction
with increased distance from the station
transmitter, static or flutter can be heard.
This can be reduced by lowering the
treble setting to reduce the treble re-
sponse.
Multipath reception: Because of the re-
flective characteristics of FM signals, di-
rect and reflected signals reach the
receiver at the same time. The signals
may cancel each other, resulting in mo-
mentary flutter or loss of sound.
AM radio reception:
AM signals, because of their low fre-
quency, can bend around objects and
skip along the ground. In addition, the
signals can be bounced off the iono-
sphere and bent back to earth. Because
of these characteristics. AM signals are
also subject to interference as they travel
from transmitter to receiver.
Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is pas-
sing through freeway underpasses or in
areas with many tall buildings. It can also
occur for several seconds during iono-
spheric turbulence even in areas where
no obstacles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electri-cal power lines, electric signs and even
traffic lights.
Satellite radio reception (if so
equipped):
When the satellite radio is used for the
first time or the battery has been re-
placed, the satellite radio may not work
properly. This is not a malfunction. Wait
more than 10 minutes with the satellite
radio ON and the vehicle outside of any
metal or large building for the satellite
radio to receive all of the necessary data.
The satellite radio mode requires an
active SiriusXM Satellite Radio subscrip-
tion. The satellite radio is not available in
Alaska, Hawaii and Guam.
The satellite radio performance may be
affected if cargo carried on the roof
blocks the satellite radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo near the
satellite antenna.
A build up of ice on the satellite radio
antenna can affect satellite radio perfor-
mance. Remove the ice to restore satellite
radio reception.
