Understanding the Vehicle
WARNING!
•
Before opening or closing the hard
top, always check that no one is in
the way, as impact with the hard top
may cause injury. Also check that no
objects stand in the way of the hard
top, as impact may cause damage to
both the hard top and the object.
•
The movement of the hard top with
the engine running must be performed
outdoor. Exhaust gases contain carbon
monoxide which is strongly toxic and
potentially lethal.
•
In case of hazard, release the hard top
button, which stops its movement.
•
Keep your hands away from the hard
top levers, the hard top compartment
and the upper edge of the windshield.
•
The RHT system should only be
opened or closed when passengers are
correctly seated.
•
Never operate or act on a hard top that
is performing an automatic movement
cycle.
CAUTION!
•
Do not open the hard top when it is
wet, as the damp that would form
in the hard top housing might cause
permanent damage to the structure.
If there is heavy rain, water may
collect in area behind the backlite.
Make sure you do not park the vehicle
on a slope to reduce the probability
of this situation occurring or avoid it.
If the water remains, do not open the
backlite.
•
Before opening or closing the hard top,
always check that there is sufficient
space in height. Please refer to chapter
"Dimensions" in section "Technical
Specifications".
•
Do not open the hard top when it is
dirty as the backlite might be damaged
when it is folded.
•
Do not open the hard top if there is
ice or snow on it. If it must be opened,
remove the snow or ice and do not use
sharp or pointed objects.
•
Do not open the RHT system when the
outside temperature is below 23° F (-5
°C).
•
Do not place objects on the hard top as
they might fall and cause damage and
injury when it is moved.
•
Do not place any objects in the hard
top housing.
•
Do not fasten roof-racks or similar on
the hard top.
•
It is advisable to close the hard top
when parking the vehicle. This not only
protects the passenger compartment
against weather agents, but is also a
safeguard against theft.
•
Before disconnecting the battery,
lower the side windows by about 1.6
-2 in (4 -5 centimeters) to prevent
damaging the hard top strip when the
doors are opened and closed. When
the battery is connected and fully
charged, this operation is performed
automatically whenever the doors are
opened or closed. The windows must
remain lowered until the recharged
battery is reconnected. If the battery is
flat and the windows are fully up, only
open the doors when strictly necessary
and being extremely careful: do not
close them again until the windows
can be lowered.
