Is there?

For curiosity's sake, I just reviewed the manual & couldn't find it... can you point me in the right direction?

Thanks!
Well, it looks like you guys are right. I could've sworn I read about it in the manual after getting the car, but I think what I must've (mis)read was this:

Emergency Actuation of the Retractable Hardtop
An emergency actuation facility for releasing the retractable hardtop by the customer is not possible. Emergency actuation is, however, possible in the service workshop. The emergency actuation procedure is described in detail in the repair instructions.

from here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/92249489/S...mplete-Vehicle

Every other convertible I've owned had an emergency procedure, though it usually required two people.

Mea culpa.
