Storage85Mounting points are located at the
bottom of the roof railing.
Fasten the roof rack according to the
installation instructions delivered with

Loading information
● Heavy objects in the load compartment should be placed
against the seat backrests. Make
sure that the backrests are
securely engaged. If objects can
be stacked, heavier objects
should be placed at the bottom.
● Prevent sliding of loose objects by securing them with straps
attached to the lashing eyes
3 78.
● Do not allow the load to protrude above the upper edge of the
backrests.
● Do not place any objects on the rear luggage cover or the
instrument panel, and do not cover the sensor on top of theinstrument panel.
● The load must not obstruct the operation of the pedals, parking
brake and gear selector, or
hinder the freedom of movement
of the driver. Do not place any
unsecured objects in the interior.
● Do not drive with an open load compartment.9Warning
Always make sure that the load in
the vehicle is securely stowed.
Otherwise objects can be thrown
around inside the vehicle and
cause personal injury or damage
to the load or car.
● The payload is the difference between the permitted gross
vehicle weight (see identification
plate 3 256) and the EC kerb
weight.
86StorageTo calculate the payload, enter
the data for your vehicle in the
weights table at the front of this
manual.
The EC kerb weight includes
weights for the driver (68 kg),
luggage (7 kg) and all fluids (fuel
tank 90% full).
Optional equipment and
accessories increase the kerb
weight.
● Driving with a roof load increases
the sensitivity of the vehicle to
cross-winds and has a
detrimental effect on vehicle
handling due to the vehicle's
higher centre of gravity.
Distribute the load evenly and
secure it properly with retaining
straps. Adjust the tyre pressure
and vehicle speed according to
the load conditions. Check and
retighten the straps frequently.
Do not drive faster than 75 mph.
The permissible roof load is:● 80 kg for vehicles with roof railing
● 100 kg for vehicles without roof railing and with two roofracks
● 150 kg for vehicles without roof railing and with three
roof racks, except vehicles
with seven seats
● 100 kg for vehicles without roof railing and with three
roof racks and seven seats
The roof load is the combined weight
of the roof rack and the load.
