Question NBCOwner:Long Time Fan 1st Time Owner

Hey New Beetle.org. My husband just bought me a red NBC GLS Turbo this weekend and I LOVE IT. It is the best birthday/valentine present EVER. However we bought it with 4000 miles and it did not come with an owners manual. So...I have some questions. Can someone go thru step by step on how to lower the convertible top because it beeps at me when I am driving or is it supposed to? I think I am not doing something correct.

You have to hold the top button until the flaps go all the way down and all the mechanism 'noise' stops, otherwise u'll get the beeping...post a pic chick!

There's no apostrophe before an 's' when you're talking about the plural version of a word. "I took some neat photo's!" is NOT correct.
