Roof carrier

Description
Additional loads can be transported using the roof carrier.
Note the following points if you intend to carry loads on the roof:
The rain channels are moulded into the roof as part of the aero-
dynamic roof design. It is therefore not possible to mount conven-
tional roof luggage racks. We recommend using the carrier units
from the range of Audi Genuine accessories.
These carrier units form the basic elements of a complete roof
carrier system. Special fixtures must then be added in order to
safely transport luggage, bicycles, skis, surf boards or boats on the
roof. All the elements of this system are available from Audi dealers.
Caution
Any damage to the vehicle caused by the use of other types of roof
rack or incorrect installation will not be covered by the factory

according to the instructions provided.
Attachment points

only.
