Note
◆ When tightening the tensioning bolts -13-, the required tight-
ening torque (or the required tightening force) of 6 Nm is
reached once the two arrows on the torque wrench -11- are
exactly opposite each other.
Tighten the tensioning bolts -13- on both sides alternately to 6
Nm in two steps using the torque wrench -11-.
Caution
The claw fastener -10- must not unhook from the roof rail
during this process.
– Check that everything is in the correct position again by tightening the tensioning bolts -13- on both sides
to 6 Nm using the torque wrench -11-.
– Close the cover flap -12-.
– Follow the same process to install the second roof bar.
WARNING
Check that the carrier units and the load to be transported are securely attached:
◆ Before the start of every journey,
◆ After approx. 10 km of the journey,
◆ approx. every 300 km on good roads
◆ Frequently on poor roads (due to vibration),
◆ Regularly to make sure that there has been no movement/displacement.
If the carrier units are not checked to make sure that they are secure and to check whether any
fasteners need tightening, they could work loose and parts may therefore be lost, despite instal-
lation being carried out properly – risk of accident!
In the event of a change in position, drive at a reduced speed until the next opportunity to stop
safely and then re-tighten the bolted connections and fixtures on the carrier units.
