Lowering soft top
1. Engage parking brake.
2. Turn key in steering lock to position 2.
3. Slide soft top switch (1) back and hold:
• The side windows lower
• The roll bar lowers.
• The indicator lamp in the soft top switch lights
up.
• The soft top is lowered into the soft top storage
compartment.
• The storage compartment cover closes and locks.
• The indicator lamp in the switch goes out - the
lowering procedure is completed.
If the soft top switch is held or is released and slid back 
again within approx. 2 seconds, the side windows will 
close. If the roll bar was previously in the upright 
position, it will return to that position.
However, the side windows and the roll bar can also be 
activated using their respective switches.
Note:
A wet or frozen soft top must not be folded until thawed 
and dry.
