CAUTION
• When carrying cargo on the
roof, take the necessary pre-
cautions to make sure the
cargo does not damage the
roof of the vehicle.
• When carrying large objects
on the roof, make sure they do
not exceed the overall roof
length or width.
WARNING
• The vehicle centre of gravity will
be higher when items are
loaded onto the roof. Avoid sud-
den starts, braking, sharp turns,
abrupt manoeuvres or high
speeds that may result in loss
of vehicle control or rollover
resulting in an accident.
• Always drive slowly and turn
corners carefully when carry-
ing items on the roof. Severe
wind updrafts, caused by pass-
ing vehicles or natural causes,
can cause sudden upward
pressure on items loaded on
the roof. This is especially true
when carrying large, flat items
such as wood panels or mat-
tresses. This could cause the
items to fall off the roof and
cause damage to your vehicle
or others around you.
• To prevent damage or loss of
cargo whilst driving, check fre-
quently before or whilst driv-
ing to make sure the items on
the roof are securely fastened.
