issue with convertible top closing all the way included PICS

this is my 2011 e550. It was in an accident so I picked it up for a good deal. Everything seems to work except this stupid convertible top. I can nurse the top to go down by hand but when it goes up it doesn't latch on the front (on top of the windshield and it also won't go down all the way in the back and the latches for the back don't want to open. Can I reset the top? Everything works it goes down now on its own but it can close on its own.

Any ideas or suggestions. Also Does anyone have a pdf manual they stole our manual out of this car.

Thank you for any help!

I would think the tape residue on the rear might indicate that it wasn't closing properly previously.
