!
CAUTION
The weight of any load carried on the
roof, including the roof rack, must
not exceed the maximum permissible
roof load.
The roof rack supports must be ar-
ranged at equal distances.
The manufacturer recommends that
you have an anti-roll bar installed on
the front axle.
Warning
G
High roof loads may cause a significant
deterioration in handling, steering and
braking characteristics even if the maxi-
mum permissible gross vehicle weight or
axle loads have not been exceeded.
Always ensure that loads are distributed
correctly and adapt your driving style in
accordance with the load.
