1-4. Opening and closing the windows and retractable hardtop
■ When opening or closing the retractable hardtop
● Make sure there is nothing above the vehicle.
● Make sure there are no items or packages in the package tray.
● Do not sit or place excessive weight on the hardtop.
● Do not open or close the hardtop when the temperature is below -4°F (-20°C),
or if the side windows or quarter windows are frozen shut.
If it is necessary to open the hardtop, side or quarter windows, warm the vehicle
in a heated garage prior to operation.
● Do not open the hardtop if it is wet. Possible interior water damage, water stains
or mildew may result.
● When the hardtop has been retracted, keep the rear window defogger turned
off.
● Do not open the trunk when the hardtop is not fully closed or opened.
● Do not open or close the hardtop repeatedly within a short time. If the motor pre-
vention circuit activates, hardtop operation is disabled. In this case, turn the
engine switch off and attempt operation again after a short wait.
● Do not place anything on the luggage cover.
● If the luggage cover is not closed securely, hardtop operation may be interfered
with.
