INITIALISATION PROCEDURE
The soft top must be re-initialised after
disconnecting the battery or if the rele-
vant protection fuse is blown.
Proceed as follows:
❒ before carrying our any operation,
make sure the motor is running during
the whole initialisation procedure;
❒ keep the opening button pressed
until the soft top is completely open;
❒ when the soft top is completely open,
keep the button pressed for at least 2
seconds;
❒ keep the closing button pressed until
the soft top is completely closed;
❒ when the soft top is completely
closed, keep the button pressed for at
least 2 seconds.
When the procedure is terminated, the
soft top will automatically carry out a com-
plete opening and closing cycle (up to 25
cm from the completely closed position)
to inform the driver that correct opera-
tion has been restored.
WIND STOP

turbulence in the passenger compart-
ment when travelling with the top down.
To use it:

(single or split).
❒ Attach the Wind Stop by inserting the
central part inside the rear screen guard,
with the concave part in the direction of
the passenger, as shown in the figure.
❒ Correctly re-position the backrest;
the Wind Stop is locked between the
seat and parcel shelf.

of it; do not bend.

namic comfort inside the passenger
