Installation instructions - Audi Q2 (GA) 2017 ►
Edition 01
WARNING
Repairs or the replacement of parts must only be performed by a qualified workshop. It is recom-
mended that genuine spare parts available from your Audi partner are used.
WARNING
The driver is responsible for making sure that his view and ability to hear are not impaired by his
load or by the condition of the vehicle.
He must make sure that the load does not prevent the vehicle from complying with country-spe-
cific regulations and that road safety is not compromised.
Note
◆ When driving with a roof load, make sure that the German Road Traffic Regulations (StVZO) or any coun-
try-specific regulations are observed.
◆ For reasons of convenience, it is common for the carrier units with/without roof rack modules to remain on
the vehicle, even if they are not in use. Your vehicle will consume more fuel due to increased wind resist-
ance.
◆ We therefore recommend that you remove the carrier units after use.
◆ Increased wind noise can result from driving with the roof bars attached.
◆ Do not use elasticated straps or bungee cords!
◆ Replace damaged components immediately.
1.3 Safety notes to be checked before and after each journey and when in
use
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.
