keep holding the button down for a few seconds (3-5 secconds) after the small "rear" windows go down - the top should unlatch itself & start to fold back. If nothing happens I'd have the car checked out by a mechanic/dealership - might be bad electronics or top hydraulics need fixing.

There is one other way to put the top down, from the outside of the car. Insert the key into the driver's door lock, turn & hold - within a few seconds the top should start to go down.

Hope this helps!
