Technical Need help to lower Cabrio Roof

[Johno933]

Simple Question .

How do you manually lower a Puntio Cabrio Roof?

I have just aquired one and appears to be a wiring issue with the Lower function, motor works fine when raised pushed.....i will be running a new cable in th efuture direct to motor, but in the mean time, i want to lower the roof, for a good clean out and maintanece session.

Thanks

Simple answer,

Open the bootlid and you will find a cover on the right hand side just above the floor where the side meets the rear panel. Prize the panel off. Behind the panel you will see a small tap. Turn the tap anti-clockwise as far as it will go, you can raise and lower the hood manually. To restore the hydraulics, just turn the tap clockwise again.

If you are opening the roof for the first time, take care when opening and make sure the central hinged bar across the roof is lifted, otherwise the roof will not retract fully and the frame can have a scissor action on the fabric just above the rear edge of the door.

Good luck
