Applies to: vehicles with soft top
- Fig. 269 Rollover bars in deployed position (with release ring)
- Fig. 270 Rollover bars in deployed position (with soft top frame pointing upwards)
If the Automatic Rollover Support System has been automatically deployed but the vehicle was not involved in an accident, you can retract the rollover bars again yourself if necessary. Drive to a qualified workshop without delay and have the fault rectified.
When soft top is open
Pull and hold the ring upwards (arrow) Fig. 269►.
Push the rollover bar down.
Let go of the ring just before the rollover bar reaches its final retracted position (about 3 - 5 cm of the bar still visible).
Push the rollover bar down as far as it will go.
Make sure the rollover bar is properly engaged before you let go of it.
Close the cover panel -A- Fig. 270►.
Repeat the same procedure for the other rollover bar.
When the soft top is closed
Switch on the ignition.
Press the switch for the soft top in order to raise the soft top frame to a vertical position Fig. 270►.
Pull and hold the ring upwards (arrow) Fig. 269►.
Push the rollover bar down.
Let go of the ring just before the rollover bar reaches its final retracted position (about 3 - 5 cm of the bar still visible).
Push the rollover bar down as far as it will go.
Make sure the rollover bar is properly engaged before you let go of it.
Close the cover panel -A- Fig. 270►.
Repeat the same procedure for the other rollover bar.
Now you can close the soft top again.
WARNING
- When pushing down the rollover bars, please take care to keep your head and body well clear of the area above the rollover bars. If a rollover bar does not engage correctly, it may be ejected suddenly when you release it - risk of injury!
- If the Automatic Rollover Support System is defective you must have it checked by a qualified workshop. Otherwise, it may not operate correctly in the event of an accident.
- It is not permissible to carry out modifications to the Automatic Rollover Support System or any of its components.
- Any repairs to the Automatic Rollover Support System must always be performed by a qualified workshop. Otherwise, the system may not operate correctly in the event of an accident or may be triggered inadvertently - risk of injury!
- Take your vehicle to be serviced when indicated by the service interval display. This will ensure that the system is always fully functional. The Automatic Rollover Support System must be checked by a qualified workshop at least every two years.
