Convertible top compartment cover cylinder 

The convertible top compartment cover cylinders are charged with pressure at the rebound stage via the energized solenoid valve F2.

They are retracted and in this way, the convertible top compartment cover is closed.

The hydraulic oil escaping from the pressure stage is directed into the hydraulic oil reservoir via F1.

Main cylinder 

The hydraulic pressure is channeled directly to the main cylinder rebound stage via solenoid valve F2.

In that way, they remain retracted and leave the convertible top in the convertible top compartment.

Bracket cylinder 

The bracket cylinders are not activated.

They remain partially retracted.
