How do you open and close the roof on a 2013 Citroen DS3 Cabrio?

Model: Citroen Ds3 MK 1 - Years 2010-2019
Part: Convertible top

Opening and closing the roof of the 2013 Citroën DS3 Cabrio is child's play, but it requires a bit of delicacy. To open it, start by turning on the engine (or at least putting the key in the "on" position). Then, look for the button dedicated to the roof on the central console, usually near the gear shift. Press the button and, with a little patience, the roof will start sliding back automatically. During the process, make sure nothing obstructs the movement, such as objects in the trunk. When you want to close it, simply press the same button. The roof will close gently, sealing the cabin. It is important that the roof is always clean and free of obstacles, so everything will go smoothly.
