Practical information
Fitting roof bars
Maximum authorised weight on the roof
bars, for a loading height not exceeding
40 cm (with the exception of bicycle
carriers): 65 kg.
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 roof.
Be sure to refer to national legislation in
order to comply with the regulations for
transporting objects that are longer than
the vehicle.
If your vehicle is fitted with roof
finishers, do not use them for carrying
loads.
