Do not exceed the maximum permitted load.
For the maximum distributed load on the roof bars: see the chapter “General”.
Recommendations:Spread the load evenly, avoiding overloading on one side.
Position the heaviest weight as low down as pos-sible.Tie the load down securely and add warning signs if it is protruding.
Drive conservatively, as the vehicle will be more vul-nerable to side winds.
The stability of your vehicle may be altered.Remove the roof rack or roof bars when you are not using them.
