SOFT TOP SYSTEM : System Protect Control


System protect control

Soft top control unit restricts or inhibits the operation due to safety and system protection reasons, when detecting an operation and activation that are not normal.
PRECONDITIONS FOR SOFT TOP
If all of the following conditions are not satisfied, the roof system does not operate.





THERMO PROTECT FUNCTION
Soft top control unit inhibits soft top operation due to system protection reasons under the following conditions.
- When soft top is operated excessively, operation is inhibited to avoid hydraulic pump or hydraulic system overheating and DTC is detected.
- Do not operate when ambient temperature is low or when operation may cause system or mechanism to be damaged.
- When soft top stops in the halfway position for 4 minutes or more, operation is inhibited and switching valve is released to avoid switching valve damage.

CAUTION:
An unintentional operation of soft top or storage lid may occur due to its own weight because oil pressure is not maintained when switching valve is released. Be careful not to pinch hands.
NOTE:
Open or close operation is possible 5 minutes after turning ignition switch OFF.
