Retracting of the Rollbars




RETRACTING OF THE ROLLBARS
The system can be reset (retracted) using the reset tool in the vehicle tool kit. The procedure is as follows:




- Remove the rear head rest
- Insert the tool in the slot in front of the roll bar
- Press the tool down to release the ratchet lock of the locking lever
- Push the roll bar down far enough to clear the ratchet.
- Remove the toll and press the roll bar down until it locks into the actuator.


CAUTIONS:




- Adjustments or repairs to the roll bar cassette and actuators are not permitted
- Each actuator lever has an overlap 1.2mm. This is a critical dimension:
> 1.2mm = no release
< 1.2mm = inadvertent release
- The cassette can only be removed in a released state. An emergency release is provided on the actuator. A screwdriver can be inserted into the small hole in the actuator to release the roll bar.
- Serious injuries could result from deployment of the rollbars while removing the cassette in an armed state.
