Power Windows
The windows can be opened/closed by
operating the power window switches.
WARNING
Make sure the opening is clear before
closing a window:
Closing a power window is dangerous. A
person's hands, head, or even neck could
be caught by the window and result in
serious injury or even death. This warning
applies especially to children.
Never allow children to play with power
window switches:
Power window switches that are not locked
with the power window lock switch would
allow children to operate power windows
unintentionally, which could result in
serious injury if a child's hands, head or
neck becomes caught by the window.
Make sure nothing blocks the window just
before it reaches the fully closed position or
while fully holding up the power window
switch:
Blocking the power window just before it
reaches the fully closed position or while
fully holding up the power window switch
is dangerous.
In this case, the jam-safe function cannot
prevent the window from closing all the
way. If fingers are caught, serious injuries
could occur.

CAUTION
Remove leaves or other matter that may accumulate on and around the convertible top. If
leaves or other matter block the drain filter, water may enter the vehicle. Clean the drain
filter at least once a year.
Refer to Convertible Top Maintenance on page 6-59.
Before opening the convertible top, make sure the rear window defogger switch is turned
off. Otherwise the heat generated from the defogger could damage the convertible top and
the internal material.
Before lowering or raising the convertible top, stop in a safe place off the right-of-way and
park on a level surface.
Make sure nothing is on the convertible top or near the back window when raising or
lowering the convertible top.
Even small objects may interfere and cause damage.
Do not drive through an automatic car wash; it may damage the convertible top.
Do not raise or lower the convertible top when the temperature is below 5 °C (41 °F) ; this
will damage the convertible top material.
Do not lower the convertible top when it's wet. If the convertible top dries while folded, it
will deteriorate and mold.
Lowering the convertible top while it's wet can also cause water to drip into the passenger
compartment.
Do not raise or lower the convertible top in a strong wind as it could damage the
convertible top or cause an unexpected accident.
NOTE
The power windows go down automatically in conjunction with the convertible top
opening/closing. However, this is a function for improving the operability, and it does not
mean there is a problem. If the vehicle battery is disconnected for vehicle maintenance or
other reasons, the power windows will not go down automatically. If the power windows
do not go down, the automatic open/close mechanism for the windows must be reset.
Refer to Auto-opening on page 3-34.
When lowering the convertible top, make sure objects inside the vehicle are not blown
away by the wind.
Secure all loose objects inside before driving with the convertible top down.
To help prevent burglary or vandalism and to ensure that the passenger compartment
stays dry, close the convertible top and both windows securely and lock both doors when
leaving the vehicle.
The soft top is made of high quality material and if it is not maintained correctly, the
material could harden, becomes stained, or have an uneven gloss.

the roof with water. Otherwise, water may enter the cabin.
Refer to Convertible Top (Retractable Hardtop) Maintenance on page 6-61.
Open/close the roof with the vehicle parked on a hard, level ground in a safe place where
the vehicle does not obstruct traffic. If the roof is opened/closed on a slope or bump, the
opening/closing mechanism of the roof may be damaged.
Do not drive through an automatic car wash as it may damage the roof.
Do not open or close the roof forcefully when the ambient temperature is low and the roof
or the surrounding area is frozen as it could damage the roof.
Opening the roof while it is wet can also cause water to drip into the passenger
compartment.
