NOTICE
• Tonneau cover is made of aluminium
profiles which heats up and cools
down relatively quick according to
weather conditions. This can cause
condensation on the inside of the
profiles and the panels.
• The pull strap has been designed
only for opening and closing the Roll
cover. The carabineer and ring will be
damaged in case of excessive load.
• Goods in the pickup bed must be
secured during transportation to
prevent damage on the structural
parts of tonneau cover (especially
the canister.)
• If the tonneau cover is closed and
has water, snow, ice or dirt on the
cover, it might enter into the pickup
bed as the cover retracts. To avoid
this, clean off the top surface of the
cover prior to opening.
• When opening the cover, the
opening should be careful and
controlled using the pull strap to
prevent the cover from hitting the
front with full speed, which it has
NOT been designed for.
CAUTION
• The Roll cover is not designed for
loading although it can support
normal snow loads. No part of it
can support any load from cargo or
persons and the product might be
damaged if somebody stands on it.

the bed rails. This could cause very
serious injuries or death. No one
