Loads
A loaded roof rack alters the vehicle's road be‐

centre of gravity.

mind:
▷ Do not exceed the permitted roof and axle
loads or the permitted gross weight.
▷ Make sure that there is sufficient space to
raise and open the Glass Roof.
▷ Distribute the roof load evenly.
▷ The roof load must not be spread over a
large area.
