> If the top is opened while it is wet, e.g. after
driving in the rain, water may drip into the
cargo area. If necessary, remove items from
the cargo area beforehand to avoid water
stains or soiling.
At temperatures below +14 7/–106, do
not move the convertible top as this could
result in damage.
Do not keep the convertible top in the convert-
ible top box for longer than one day if it is wet;
otherwise, the moisture may cause damage.
Do not place objects on the convertible top, as
otherwise they may fall off when you operate
the convertible top and cause damage or injury.
Never move the convertible top when the roll-
over protection system is in the activated posi-
tion.
Always fully complete a convertible top move-
ment. Driving with the convertible top incom-
pletely opened or closed can result in damage
or injury.
Do not reach into the mechanism during the
opening or closing procedure. Keep children
away from the opening/closing path of the con-
vertible top.
For safety reasons, only move the convertible
top when the vehicle is stationary, if possible.<
The convertible top swings upward when
opening and closing. When operating the
convertible top in a garage, under a bridge, etc.,
ensure that there are at least 6 ft 7 in/2 m of
headroom; otherwise, the vehicle may be dam-
aged.<
Before opening and closing
> Comply with the safety precautions
described above.
> Ensure that the cargo area partition is
folded down and engaged on both sides,
refer to page 98; otherwise, it will not be
possible to open the convertible top.
> Ensure that the cargo does not press
against the cargo area partition from below.
> Ensure that the trunk lid is closed.
Opening and closing
Convertible top operation with Comfort Access,
refer also to page 20.
As of radio readiness, refer to page 48:
If possible, conserve the battery by only
operating the convertible top when the
engine is running.
Before closing the convertible top, remove all
foreign objects from the windshield frame as
these could prevent the hardtop from closing
properly.<

Operation while driving
You can open or close the convertible top while
driving, as long as the car is not moving faster
than approx. 25 mph/40 km/h.
If you accelerate to over 30 mph/50 km/h while
the convertible top is moving, the procedure is
interrupted.
When operating the convertible top while
driving, pay extra attention to the traffic to
avoid an accident. If possible, do not move the
convertible top while driving in reverse gear,
because your view to the rear is severely limited
during the procedure. Do not operate the con-
vertible top while driving in windy conditions.
Do not drive faster than 30 mph/50 km/h; other-
wise, damage to the vehicle can occur.<
