Loads can only be attached securely when the roof carrier system is fitted correctly .
The maximum permitted roof load is 75 kg. The roof load limit refers to the combined weight of the roof carrier and the load carried on the roof .
Ensure that you know the weight of the roof rack and the items to be transported on the roof, and weigh them if necessary. Never exceed the maximum permissible roof load.
To secure the front mount, remove the plastic screws from the holes.
However, you will not be able to carry the maximum roof load if you are using a roof carrier with a lower weight rating. In this instance, do not exceed the maximum weight limit for the roof carrier. This weight limit is listed in the fitting instructions.
Distribute the load evenly and secure it correctly .
After the mounts and roof carrier have been attached, check the bolted connections and fastenings once you have travelled a short distance and then at regular intervals.
Accidents and vehicle damage can occur if the maximum permitted roof load is exceeded.
Never exceed the quoted roof load, the maximum permissible axle loads, and the permissible gross vehicle weight for the vehicle.
Do not exceed the weight rating of the roof carrier, even if the maximum roof load has not been reached.
Secure heavy objects as far forwards as possible and distribute the load evenly.
Loose and incorrectly secured loads can fall off the roof carrier and cause accidents and injuries.
Always use suitable and undamaged securing straps.
