Unlatch the front latches. Lift the front of the top and at the same time lift the rear of the top. The top will now be collapsed and positioned above the seats. There is a button up under the left side of the rear cover. It is a round button. The button releases the tonneau cover which will then be flipped up allowing access to store the top. Let the rear part of the top lower into the storage area at the same time moving the rest of the top towards the rear of the car. The top will collapse into the storage area. Close the tonneau and enjoy top down cruising.

It's not important to know how to put it up. You'll never want to anyways.
