Warning
For safety reasons
the
vehicle
may only
be
driven with
the
roof
completely closed
and
secured.
The roof
may not be
opened
if the
vehicle
is in
motion
Lifting the roof and engaging the
front
bed
panel (see page 57) gives more headroom
inside.
After lowering the bed panel the bed
in the roof compartment is then accessible.
Raising roof
Before lifting
the
roof, please
en-
sure that enough room
is
available
above
the
vehicle,
e. g. if the
vehicle
is parked under trees.
The
roof could
be damaged
if too
little room
is
available.

the windscreen to the direction of the
arrow.
•
Lift
roof slightly
until
the securing hook is

(arrow)
until
the
gas
struts can hold it open
fully
themselves.
In order to do this, the right-hand gas

must be engaged
fully.
Notes
Window
in
canvas
Both windows located in the
front
section
of the canvas can be reached after
lifting
the
roof and are screened
with
gauze for protec-
tion
against insects.
Opening window
Open
zip and fold the canvas down. In this
position the vehicle can be ventilated with-
out
letting
insects get
into
the vehicle. The
anti-insect gauze is
firmly
sewed to the
can-
vas
and cannot be opened.
Note
When closing the
roof,
the windows must
be closed to avoid damaging the canvas.
• As the vacuum created when
lifting
the
roof makes it hard to open it is advisable to
open a vehicle window or door.
• The roof load must not exceed 15 kg
when the roof is open.
Please
ensure
that
the gas
strut
is
fully
engaged when the roof
has
been opened. The roof could otherwise
close
on its own under the weight of the
roof load.
