Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
fixing points for base support
Stowing the roof rack
Roof load
WARNING
When transporting cargo the following the instructions must be adhered
to.
The transported items on the roof rack must always be securely attached
■
– risk of accident!
Always secure the load with appropriate and undamaged lashing straps
■
or tensioning straps.
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.
■
The permissible roof load, permissible axle loads and gross permissible
■
weight of the vehicle must not be exceeded under any circumstances – risk
of accident!
CAUTION
On models fitted with a sliding/tilting roof, ensure that the sliding/tilting roof
■
and re-
does not strike any items of luggage transported on the roof when tilting.
Ensure that the luggage compartment lid does not hit the roof load when
■
opened.
