Practical information
Fitting roof bars
For safety reasons and to avoid damaging the roof, it is essential to use the transverse bars
approved for your vehicle.
Maximum load distributed over the roof
bars, for a load height not exceeding
40 cm (except bicycle carriers):
-
for roof bars with pads
at 90 mm: 50 kg,
-
for roof bars with pads
at 150 mm: 80 kg.
For more information, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the
speed of the vehicle to the profile of the
road to avoid damaging the roof bars
and the fixings on the vehicle.
Be sure to refer to local legislation in
order to comply with the regulations for
transporting objects which are longer
than the vehicle.
When fitting roof bars, use only the four fixing
points located in the roof frame. The points are
masked by the vehicle doors when closed.
The roof bar fixings include a stud to be fitted to
the hole at each fixing point.
Observe the fitting instructions and the
conditions of use in the guide supplied with the
bars.
