tighten if necessary and secure further by
locking. Tighten all fastening screws again.
When the Roof Transport System is loaded, the
maximum speeds depends on the nature, size and
weight of the load being carried.

when the Roof Transport System is fitted and

(180 km/h).
Washing the vehicle in a car wash or failure to
observe the overall vehicle height or the permitted
gross weight can damage the vehicle or Roof
Transport System.

before washing the vehicle in a car wash.
f Check the overall vehicle height with the Roof
Transport System fitted before driving into
multi-storey car parks, garages underground
garages and tunnels.

permissible gross weight and permissible axle
loads.
Details of these weights and loads can be
