Roof rack system 3
For reasons of safety and to avoid
damaging the roof, we recommend
that you use roof rack systems
approved for your vehicle.
Fasten the roof rack to the roof rails
following the instructions that
accompany the system, ensuring that
the roof load is evenly distributed
over the side or cross rails. Loads
must not be placed on the roof
surface.
To prevent damage or loss, check
frequently that roof loads are securely
fastened.
Driving with a roof load affects the
vehicle’s centre of gravity: drive
carefully in crosswinds and do not
drive at high speeds.
Driving hints 3 9-1.
