WARNING
The transported items on the roof rack must be securely attached – risk of
■
accident!
Always secure the load with appropriate and undamaged lashing straps or
■
tensioning straps.
Distribute the load evenly over the roof rack system.
■
When transporting heavy objects or objects which take up a large area on
■
the roof rack system, the handling of the car may change as a result of the
displacement of the centre of gravity. The style of driving and speed must
therefore be adapted to the current circumstances.
Avoid abrupt and sudden driving/braking manoeuvres.
■
Adjust the speed and driving style to the visibility, weather, road and traffic
■
conditions.
The permissible roof load, permissible axle loads and permissible total vehi-
■
cle weight must not be exceeded under any circumstances – risk of accident!
CAUTION
Only roof racks from the ŠKODA Original Accessories range should be used.
■
When dealing with roof rack systems, the installation instructions supplied with
■
the roof luggage rack system must be observed.
On vehicles with a panoramic sunroof, make sure that the tilted panorama roof
■
does not strike any items which are transported.
Ensure that the boot lid does not hit the roof load when opened.

For the sake of the environment

The increased aerodynamic drag results in a higher fuel consumption.
Roof load

First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 90.
The maximum permissible roof load (including roof rack system) of 100 kg and the
90
maximum permissible total weight of the vehicle should not be exceeded.
The full permissible roof load cannot be used if a roof rack system with a lower
load carrying capacity is used. In this case, the roof rack system must only be loa-
ded up to the maximum weight limit specified in the fitting instructions.
