Roof Luggage Rack; Maximum Authorised Load For The Roof - MG GS Handbook

Roof Luggage Rack

The roof loads shall not exceed the maximum
authorised load for the roof, or else they
may lead to an accident and cause the car
damaged.
Loose or improperly fixed loads may fall from
the roof luggage rack and lead to an accident
or cause people injured.
When heavy or large items are carried on the
roof luggage rack, the control ability of the
car will change due to the shift of the center
of gravity as well as the increase of the frontal
area. Avoid emergency steering, emergency
acceleration or emergency braking when the
car is running.

rack:
• Fix loads to the front of the roof as far as possible, and
distribute the roof load evenly.
