A.0 Fitting
A.1
Check with the assembly instructions that all the necessary parts are
present.
A.2 Clean the car roof and those parts of the product that come into contact
with the roof before and regularly during use.
A.3 Go through and carefully follow the assembly instructions and the recom-
mendation list, if one is included. Then fit the unit in the correct sequence,
that is to say 1, 2, 3 and so on.
A.4 If no special fitting positions are given in the assembly instructions, try
to maintain a minimum distance of 24
carrier bars.
A.5 When carrying long loads, the distance between the load carrier bars
should not be less than 23
A.6 Every time the unit is fitted, check that the load carrier is sitting securely
on the roof. Try to push and pull the carrier out of its locked position. Try
also to pull out the tensioning tabs from the roof edge. If you manage to
move any part of the unit, the load carrier must be secured more firmly.
This test should be carried out regularly.
A.7 Some types of sunroof and radio antenna cannot be used when the carri-
er is fitted.
A.8 The roof rack is permitted to be assembled on cars with glass roof, unless
otherwise is specified in mounting instruction.
A.9 The manufacturer can not be held responsible for personal damages of
property or lost of fortune caused by incorrect mounting or use of the
product.
A.10 No modifications to the product are permitted.
A.11 Consult with your dealer if you have any questions regarding the oper-
ations and limits of the products. Review all instructions and warranty
information carefully.
B.0 Loading
B.1
The maximum load specified in the assembly instructions is not to be
exceeded. However, this limit is always subordinate to the maximum load
recommended by the manufacturer of the car itself. It is always the lower
maximum recommended load that applies. Max. roof load = load carrier
weight + any fitted carrier accessories + the weight of the load itself.
B.2 The load may not significantly exceed the load carrier's width, and it
should always be spread evenly across the load carrier and with the
lowest possible centre of gravity.
