Actuating Lever
An actuating lever is integrated in the variable com-
partment floor on the right side. It allows the com-
partment floor to be opened and closed using the
actuating lever. It also locks the compartment floor
into position.
Dampening Piston
A dampening piston is also integrated in the
variable compartment floor on the right side.
It assists in the movement of the variable
compartment floor to either position and keep
it fixed in that set position (retracted or
extended). The lower dampening piston
hinge switches the micro switch integrated
on the right side of the compartment floor
when the variable compartment floor is in the
raised position. This signal is provided to the
CVM to lock out the operation of the convert-
ible-top.
System Operation:
Opening the variable compartment floor
• The convertible top must be raised or removed from the storage compartment.
• Pull the actuating lever rear wards and push it down and toward the rear bulkhead.
Closing the variable compartment floor
• Pull the actuating lever down.
• Pull the compartment floor rear wards to close the floor.
