Roof load
Cup holders
Loads carried on the roof must be securely attached. The
car's handling is affected when transporting loads.
The maximum permissible roof load for your vehicle is 75 kg. The
load limit applies to the combined weight of the carrier system and
the load itself.
It will not be possible to carry the full maximum load if the roof
carrier you are using is rated for a load which is less than this figure.
Do not exceed the maximum weight limit for the roof carrier, which
is listed in the fitting instructions.

WARNING
• To prevent accidents, loads carried on the roof must be
securely attached.
• Do not exceed the maximum roof load for the vehicle, the
maximum axle loads or the maximum gross vehicle weight, as this
could cause an accident.
• When transporting heavy or bulky loads on the roof, bear in
mind that the car's handling is affected by the extra weight on the
roof and a possible susceptibility to cross winds. Adjust your
speed and driving style accordingly to avoid accidents.

For the sake of the environment
The increased air resistance when the roof carrier is fitted means
that the vehicle uses more fuel. For this reason you should always
take off the roof carrier when it is not in use.
