5. Press the button on the
convertible top handle and pull the
handle down to open both top
clamps before the top meets the
windshield header.
6. Resume pushing the convertible top switch until it has reached the
fully closed position flush to the header.
7. The two pins under the forward edge of the top should seat
themselves in the matching holes in the header.
8. To fasten both clamps securely,
push the clamp handles into the
header on the top until they are
flush with the header. Pulling down
on the header at the center grip
while closing the latches may assist
in fastening the clamps. Use the pull
cups located on either side of the
convertible top handle.
9. Push the convertible top handle
back up so that it locks into
position.
Prolonged storage
It may be difficult to pull down and latch the convertible top after
prolonged storage with the top in the down position over the winter or in
colder temperatures. This difficulty will decline over time with warmer
temperatures and the convertible top in the full up or latched position.
