CAUTION!

  • The hard top is not designed to carry any additional loads, such as after-market roof racks, spare tires, building materials, hunting or camping supplies, etc. For optional Mopar® accessory roof racks.
  • Do not move your vehicle until the top has been either fully attached to the front header, sport bar, and body side or fully removed.

Failure to follow these cautions may cause interior water damage, stains or mildew:

  • It is recommended that the top be free of water prior to panel removal. Removing the top, opening a door or lowering a window while the top is wet may allow water to drip into the vehicle’s interior.
  • The hard top assembly must be positioned properly to ensure sealing. Improper installation can cause water to leak into the vehicle’s interior.
  • Careless handling and storage of the removable roof panels may damage the seals, causing water to leak into the vehicle’s interior.
  • The front panel(s) must be positioned properly to ensure sealing. Improper installation can cause water to leak into the vehicle’s interior.
