Folding the pop-up roof
Fig. 171 Pulling rope (1), Expansion
bellows (2)
Fig. 172 Loops (1)
Fig. 173: Roof locking mechanisms
Fig. 174: Access hatch
1. Fully close the venting windows and zips.
2. Open the roof canopy to prevent overpressure in the pop-up
roof during the folding process. This would push the
expansion bellows to the outside.
CAUTION
Risk of injury when exiting!
Jumping from the pop-up roof may cause injuries due
to breaking objects.
• Never jump from the pop-up roof to the floor or
climb down without checking where you step.
• Do not step on furniture or the covers of the hob or
sink.
• Always use the access ladder to exit the pop-up
roof.
3. Before closing the pop-up roof, remove any items that could
put pressure onto the roof shell (blankets, sleeping bags,
clothing, etc.) and leave the pop-up roof.
ATTENTION
Risk of damage to the expansion bellows!
When folding, the expansion bellows may be pinched
between objects and damaged.
• Always ensure during folding that the expansion
bellows properly fold to the inside and is not
pinched between the outer edges of the pop-up
roof, pneumatic springs, chassis components or
between the roof locking mechanisms.
4. From the access ladder, use the pulling rope (Fig. 171/1) to
slowly pull the pop-up roof down. Very carefully use the
lateral loops (Fig. 172/1) to pull the expansion bellows to the
inside and ensure no pinching of the bellows between
objects and components.
5. Look around the vehicle's exterior to ensure that the bellows
nowhere hangs outside.
6. Securely brace the pop-up roof with the roof locking
mechanisms (Fig. 173/1).
7. Stow the access ladder and pulling rope; and
close the access hatch (Fig. 174).
