1Cross bar
2Knurled-head screws
3Clamping plates

The cross bars (1) should only be used as guard rails to
prevent luggage from sliding. They must only be
installed above the protective strips (4).Installation:
1. Loosen knurled-head screws (2) and turn clamping
plates (3) to side.
2. Mount cross bar (1) on roof railings.
3. Turn clamping plates (3) back under roof railings
and tighten the knurled-head screws (2).
Important!
Do not use the pop-up feature of the sliding / pop-up roof
when positioning and / or placing luggage above it, to
prevent damage to the sliding / pop-up roof panel.
Never place luggage on cross bars only, but load it on
the protective strips, distribute it evenly over the entire

Long cargo items should not extend beyond the vehicle
length and should be securely fastened at the front and
rear.
Prior to and during an extended trip check the roof load,
and retighten the knurled-head screws if necessary.
The heaviest portion of the cargo should always be kept
as low as possible since it influences the handling
characteristics of the vehicle.
When driving without roof luggage, the cross bars may
be removed to reduce wind noise.
For load capacity see page 326.Note:
Use only roof racks approved by Mercedes-Benz. They
mount to the roof railings and do not require additional
supports (e.g. suction cups or legs). Such supports may
lead to marring of the paint or denting of the roof. For
further information inquire at your Mercedes-Benz
Center.
