WARNING (Continued)
Distribute the load evenly over the roof rack system.
■
When transporting heavy objects or objects which take up a large area on
■
the roof rack system, the handling of the car may change as a result of the
displacement of the centre of gravity. The style of driving and speed must
therefore be adapted to the current circumstances.
Avoid abrupt and sudden driving/braking manoeuvres.
■
Adjust the speed and driving style to the visibility, weather, road and traf-
■
fic conditions.
The permissible roof load, permissible axle loads and permissible total ve-
■
hicle weight must not be exceeded under any circumstances – risk of acci-
dent!
CAUTION
Only roof racks from the ŠKODA Original Accessories range should be used.
■
When dealing with roof racks, the installation instructions supplied with the
■
roof luggage rack system must be observed.
On models fitted with a power sliding/tilting roof or a panoramic sliding roof,
■
ensure that the opened sliding/tilting roof or the panoramic sliding roof does
not strike any items of luggage transported on the roof.
Ensure that the boot lid does not hit the roof load when opened.
■
The height of the vehicle changes after mounting a roof luggage rack system
■
and the load that is secured to it. Compare the vehicle height with available
clearances, such as underpasses and garage doors.
Always remove the roof luggage rack system before entering an automated
■
car wash.
Ensure the roof aerial is not impaired by the secured load.
■
For the sake of the environment
The increased aerodynamic drag results in a higher fuel consumption.

Read and observe and
The maximum permissible roof load (including roof rack system) of 100 kg and
the maximum permissible total weight of the vehicle should not be exceeded.
The full permissible roof load cannot be used if a roof rack system with a lower
load carrying capacity is used. In this case, the roof rack system must only be
loaded up to the maximum weight limit specified in the fitting instructions.
