Cargo Shield
The cargo shield is located in the trunk. Before lowering
the convertible top, you must unfold the cargo shield and
seat the tabs at each end of the cargo shield in the V slots
in the trunk liner. Doing so closes a switch that allows top
operation. If the switch is not closed, a warning message
displays in the instrument cluster to notify the driver.
Positioning the Cargo Shield for Top Operation
Pull the cargo shield toward you to begin unfolding the
panels. Grasp the handle in the center of the outermost
(top) panel and raise the cargo shield. Then, align and
seat the tabs at each end of the cargo shield in the V slots
in the trunk liner as shown in the illustration.
CAUTION!
Do NOT place items on cargo protector. Items placed
on cargo protector will interfere with the top during
operation and cause excessive damage to the top.
Positioning the Cargo Shield for Cargo Storage
To maximize the storage space in the trunk, the Cargo
Shield can be stowed in the forward portion of the trunk.
To stow the Cargo Shield, grasp the handle of the upright
panel of the Cargo Shield, lifting the pins out of the V
slots in the trunk trim. Continue folding the upright
Cargo Shield
