I’ve left the top down for over a week. But it’s a good idea to put the top up once in awhile to get the creases out. There is no reason to put the top up every time.

Provided the top is clean and dry. One week is fine.

Don't store a wet or damp top while down.

I tend to keep the top up when the car's parked. Keeps the dust and critters out. I also have a car cover, if I'm gone for more than a few days.
