Applies to: vehicles with soft top
The soft top opens and closes automatically. When the top opens, it folds away completely into the storage box. The soft top can be opened or closed at a speed of up to 50 km/h.
In normal conditions the soft top is windproof and waterproof. In extremely bad weather (such as torrential or continuous rain), a few droplets of water may possibly form inside the car. This is quite normal, and no cause for concern.
To preserve the appearance of the soft top and keep it waterproof, please follow the instructions for cleaning and care link►
. You should also note the following points:
- Open and stow the soft top only when it is clean and dry. Otherwise particles of grit can scratch the rear window and damage the fabric. Pressure creases can form if the soft top is stowed when damp, and mildew or other damage can occur if left for long periods.
- Do not leave the soft top open for weeks at a time to prevent any discolouration in the folds of the fabric.
- Remove any ice and snow before opening the soft top. To avoid scratching or damaging the soft top, do not use sharp objects for this purpose. A normal ice scraper can be used to clear the rear window.
- Do not open the soft top at temperatures below 0 °C. The fabric loses its elasticity at sub-zero temperatures.
