Safety stopThe button on the remote control or
the switch in the centre console must
be actuated until the soft top is in its
respective end position. Releasing
the button or the switch during
operation stops soft top movement
immediately. The soft top remains in
intermediate position only for a
certain time. After this time a warning
chime sounds, the hydraulic pressure
in the system decreases and the soft top can start to move by itself.
Actuating button or switch once more continues operation.
Requirements for operation ■ Vehicle is stationary or driving with a speed up to 31 mph.
■ Load compartment partition isfolded out, pass-through flap isclosed 3 71.
■ Soft top lid is engaged in closed position.
■ Boot lid is completely closed.
■ Outside temperature is not lower than -7 °C for opening and -10 °C
for closing.
■ Vehicle battery voltage is sufficient.
■ The system is not overloaded by repeated operation (max. 5
complete cycles in succession).If any of these requirements are not
fulfilled, a warning chime sounds
and a message appears in the
Driver Information Centre when the switch is actuated and the soft top
will not open or close.
■ There must be no objects in front of
the rear window or in the pivot area of the soft top and the soft top lid.

■ The soft top can be held in an intermediate position to facilitate
cleaning of hood spaces and
gaskets. Release the switch in the
centre console during operation to
stop soft top movement in
intermediate position for a
maximum of 7 minutes when
ignition is on. After this time a warning chime sounds, the
hydraulic pressure in the system
decreases and the soft top can
start to move by itself.
