Observe the notes on the carrier systems More.
If the weight of the roof luggage, including the roof luggage rack, exceeds the maximum permissible roof load, there is a risk of an accident.
Maximum roof load | Minimum number of pairs of supports |
---|---|
150 kg | 3 |
This information applies if the load is distributed evenly across the entire roof area.
If the roof luggage rack is shorter, reduce the load proportionately. The maximum load per pair of roof rack supports is 50 kg. The maximum load of basic carrier bars for rail is 100 kg.
The driving, braking and steering characteristics of the vehicle will change with the type of load, the weight and the centre of gravity of the load. Comply with the loading guidelines and further information about load distribution More.
