The roof rack*
Description
Pay attention to the following points if you wish to transport luggage or other items
on the roof of your vehicle:
•A special roof luggage rack system was developed for the vehicle, that is why
you should only use a roof luggage rack which has been released for use by Škoda
Auto a.s.
•The base carrier is the basis for a comple te roof luggage rack system. Separate
additional holders are required for safety reasons for transporting luggage, bikes,
surfboards, skis and boats.
•The basic version of the roof luggage ra ck system and further components are
obtainable as accessories from Škoda Service Partners.
Caution
•If you use other roof rack systems or if the roof bars are not properly fitted, then
any damage which may result to your ca r is not covered by the warranty agree-
ments. It is therefore essential to pay attention to the fitting instructions supplied
with the roof luggage rack system.
•On models fitted with a power sliding/tilting roof, ensure that the opened
sliding/tilting roof does not strike any items of luggage transported on the roof.
•Ensure that the opened boot lid do es not collide with the roof load.
For the sake of the environment
The increased aerodynamic drag results in a higher fuel consumption. One should
therefore take off the roof bar system after use.
Attachment points
Fitting
– Insert the attachment points of the roof rack into the mounts of the
body so that the pins of the attach ment points grasp into the holes of
the body.
Note
•Pay attention to the information regarding assembly and disassembly in the
attached instructions.
•If you have any questions, please contact a specialist garage.
Roof load
Distribute weight evenly over the roof luggage rack system. The maximum permis-
sible roof load (including roof rack system) of 100 kg and the maximum permissible
total weight of the vehicl e should not be exceeded.
You cannot make full use of th e permissible roof load if you use a roof luggage rack
system with a lower load carrying capa city. The load transported on the roof
luggage rack system must not exceed the weight limit which is stated in the fitting
instructions.
