into consideration the weight of the bars (8 kg) (e.g. vehicle max roof load, 75 kg - capacity 75 -
8 = 67 kg) - Never exceed vehicle max; roof loading capacity, also take into consideration further
loading on bars (e.g. cycle carrier 3 kg + cycle 10 kg). Dedicated accessories are designed for
some loads (for instance skis or cycle carriers) it is advised to use them whenever available.
Adapt your travelling speed to the load being carried. Bulky loads (such a windsurf boards, wood
panels, bed frames, etc.) create significant wind drag, this requires special attention: - Use only
top quality straps (tie down systems or load straps) bungee cords must be avoided - Use an
adequate number of straps on the rack - In the case of long loads, tie down front and rear of the
load to the vehicle. - Do not drive over 55 mph. Keep these instructions for future use.
Secure long loads to two fixed points of the vehicle, front and rear.
