Important Safety Notes - Mercedes-Benz CLS 2015 Operator's Manual

! Mercedes-Benz recommends that you
only use roof carriers that have been tested
and approved for Mercedes-Benz vehicles.
This helps to prevent damage to the vehi-
cle.
Position the load on the roof carrier in such
a way that the vehicle will not sustain dam-
age even when it is in motion.
Ensure that, depending on the vehicle's
equipment, you can raise the sliding sun-
roof fully and open the trunk lid fully when
the roof carrier is installed.
! To avoid damaging or scratching the cov-
ers, do not use metallic or hard objects to
open them.
You will find information on the maximum roof
load in the "Technical data" section
( page 392).
