5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
■ Parts removed during the manual closing procedure
Keep any parts removed during the procedure inside the vehicle and take all
removed parts and the vehicle to your Lexus dealer.
■ When manually closing the retractable hardtop
Observe the following precautions:
● Stop the vehicle on a flat surface in a safe place.
● Set the parking brake and shift the shift lever to P.
● Ensure that there are no occupants inside the vehicle.
● Do not perform this procedure while there are strong winds blowing.
● Turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch off.
● Be careful not to catch any part of your body or clothing in the moving parts.
● Some parts of this procedure may result in an injury if performed with bare hands.
Protect your hands with gloves or a piece of cloth when performing the proce-

■ After the retractable hardtop has been closed manually
● Drive as slowly as possible. The trunk lid may not be closed securely, causing it to
open due to wind pressure while driving.
