the roof rack is to be installed.  
Heavy objects in the load compartment  
should be placed against the seat  
backrests. Make sure that the  
backrests are securely engaged  
ðpage37 . If objects can be stacked,  
heavier objects should be placed at the  
bottom.  
Loading information  
Driving with a roof load increases the  
sensitivity of the vehicle to cross-winds  
and has a detrimental effect on vehicle  
handling due to the vehicle's higher  
centre of gravity.  
Distribute the load evenly and secure  
it properly with retaining straps. Adjust  
the tyre pressure and vehicle speed  
according to the load conditions. Check  
and retighten the straps frequently.  
Do not drive faster than about 74 mph.  
The permissible roof load is 60 kg. The  
roof load is the combined weight of the  
roof rack and the load.  
Warning  
Prevent sliding of loose objects by  
securing them with straps attached to  
the lashing eyes ðpage38 .  
Always make sure that the load in the  
vehicle is securely stowed.  
Otherwise objects can be thrown  
around inside the vehicle and cause  
personal injury or damage to the load  
or car.  
Do not allow the load to protrude above  
the upper edge of the backrests.  
Do not place any objects on the load  
compartment cover or the cluster, and  
do not cover the sensor on top of the  
instrument panel.  
The load must not obstruct the  
operation of the pedals, parking brake
