Driving with a roof load increases
the sensitivity of the vehicle
to cross-winds and has a
detrimental effect on vehicle
handling due to the vehicle's
higher centre of gravity.

secure it properly with retaining
straps. Adjust the tyre pressure
and vehicle speed according to
the load conditions. Check and
retighten the straps frequently.
