So I just took delivery of a 07 335i convertible and I can't seem to get the top to go down, any ideas?

I've actuated the top switch in the center console, and the BC cluster shows the icon for top actuation, but nothing happens with the top itself.

Foot on the brake? Car running? Trunk divider in the correct position?

divider needs to be pulled down and click in place. also you need to hold the button all the time through the whole process (unless you have smarttop installed)
