Dodge 2008 Viper - Manual (Page 64)

CONVERTIBLE TOP OPERATION —
CONVERTIBLE MODELS ONLY
WARNING!
The convertible top does not provide the structural
protection that a reinforced metal roof does, and the
fabric top cannot be expected to prevent the ejection
of the occupants of a vehicle in a collision. Therefore,
it is important that all occupants wear their seat belts
at all times when riding in a convertible. Studies
have shown that it is generally safer to remain inside
a vehicle during a collision, than to be ejected from
the vehicle.
CAUTION!
• To insure that no damage occurs, be sure that the
vehicle is at a complete stop with the gear selector
in the Neutral position before lowering or raising
the top.
• Do not operate the convertible top with ice or
snow build-up on the top. Damage to the top may
occur.
To Lower the Top:
1. Lower the window in each door at least one inch.
2. Lower both sun visors.
