Power convertible top

So that you can get the most enjoyment

out of your MINI Convertible, please

observe the following tips:

>It is recommended that you close the

convertible top whenever the vehicle is

parked.

The closed convertible top not only pro-

tects the vehicle interior from damage

due to unforeseen bad weather, but also

provides a certain degree of protection

against theft

>Even when the convertible top is closed,

keep valuable items in the locked lug-

gage compartment or in the lockable

glove compartment

>Do not mount any roof rack systems on

the convertible top

>To avoid damage, do not operate the

convertible top at temperatures below

147/–106.

Do not leave the convertible top

folded for more than one day if it is

wet, to prevent permanent damage from

moisture. Do not place any objects on the

convertible top, as they could otherwise fall

off while the convertible top is being oper-

ated and result in damage or personal

injury.<

Driving off before an opening or clos-

ing procedure is completely finished

can lead to damage or personal injury.

Make sure that the convertible top's travel

path is clear and do not reach into the con-

vertible top mechanism during opening or

closing procedures, otherwise injuries may

result. Keep children away from the swivel-

ing area of the convertible top while it is in

operation.<

Before closing the convertible top, remove

any foreign objects from the windshield

frame. They could prevent the convertible

top from closing.

To conserve battery power, if possible

operate the convertible top only

while the engine is running.

Only operate the convertible top when the

vehicle is at a standstill. Otherwise, the pro-

cedure cannot be carried out or it will be

interrupted.

In order to operate the convertible top, the

loading aid must be locked and the luggage

compartment cover must be in its lower

position, refer to page 94.<
