500SL 1991 - problem taking off hard-top; soft-top not working

Kindly assist with my problem!

When activating the red button, windows roll down and there is an audible "click", but the hard top does not pop up.

We can take the hardtop off manually, but soft-top does not work, neither does the roll bar.

We checked the fuses in the boot and they seem fine.

What could be the problem?

If it is lack of hydraulic fluid, how do we fill it up?

Thanking you in advance!

After the windows the next stage is the roll bar, is this working as it should.
