Practical information -> Roof bars for Your Citroen C5 Suv Second Generation (2008-2017)

Practical information  
Roof bars  
The design of your vehicle requires the use  
of roof bars that are tested and approved by  
CITROËN, for your safety and to avoid damage  
to the roof and tailgate.  
Maximum load that can be distributed  
on the roof bars (for a loading height  
not exceeding 40 cm; except bicycle  
carrier): 80 kg.  
Regardless of the type of loading equipment  
to be transported on the roof (bicycle carrier,  
ski carrier...), it is imperative that you add  
transverse roof bars. Any securing or lashing to  
components other than the roof bars is strictly  
prohibited.  
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt your  
speed to the profile of the road to avoid  
damaging the roof bars and the fixings  
on the roof.  
Please refer to national legislation in  
order to comply with the regulations  
concerning the transportation of objects  
which are longer than the vehicle.  
Recommendations

Distribute your load evenly, avoiding  
overloading on one side.  
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as  
close as possible to the roof.  
Anchor the load securely and draw  
attention to it if any part of it is  
overhanging.

Drive gently, as the vehicle will be more  
liable to the effects of side winds (vehicle  
stability may be altered).  
Remove the roof bars as soon as they are  
no longer needed.
