General notes

NOTE: For emergency operation see repair instructions.

The emergency actuation is described in detail in the repair instructions.

IMPORTANT: No anti-trap mechanism for the rear window

The rear window has no anti-trap mechanism.

NOTE: Maintenance-free hydraulic fluid

The hydraulic fluid does not have to be changed because the system is filled with life-time fluid. If, as a result of a leak, hydraulic fluid needs to be topped up, always use the approved grade of hydraulic fluid. Pour in hydraulic fluid only up to marking on oil reservoir.

NOTE: If excessive noise is generated, bleed the hydraulic system

If there is a significant build-up of noise while the soft top is moving, the soft top must be opened and closed several times. This will automatically bleed the hydraulic system in the oil reservoir.
