Technical data

Maximum roof load330 lbs (150 kg)
with at least three
pairs of support
points
Maximum load for a
rear-mounted cycle
rack154 lbs (70 kg)
for up to four bicycles
The data is validfor aloadd istributed evenly
over the entire roof area.
Reduce the loa donshorter roof carriers pro-
portionately. The maximu mloadp er pai rofroof
carrie rsupports is 110 lbs (50 kg) .The maxi-
mum loa dofarail carrie rbar is 220 lbs (100 kg).
If you have installed arear-mounted bicycle rack
on the tailgate, the additiona lweight reduces
the support provided by the pneumatic springs
when the tailgate is opened.Y ou willthen need
more force to open the tailgate. At low outside
temperatures belowf reezing the tailgate can
sink unintentionally after opening.

cerning loa ddistribution and loads ecuring can
