Driving tips
Loading

Mounting
Be sure that adequate clearance is maintained
for tilting and opening the glass sunroof.
To slide the lashing eyes, press the button, ar‐

Loading
Because roof-mounted luggage racks raise the
vehicle's center of gravity when loaded, they
have a major effect on vehicle handling and
steering response.
The lashing eyes at the openings in the rails
can be removed.
Attach load securing aids, such as lashing
straps, retaining straps, draw straps or cargo
nets, to the lashing eyes in the cargo area.
Therefore, note the following when loading
and driving:
▷
Do not exceed the approved roof/axle
loads and the approved gross vehicle
weight.
