Carriers*
Roof rails
Basic cross bars*
The maximum roof load (
୴ page 559) of
any add-on roof equipment is reduced by
the unladen weight of the basic cross bars
(13.7 Ibs/6.2 kg).
Four keys and an Allen wrench required for
installing and removing are included with
the basic cross bars.
Warning! G
Only use carriers* when the basic cross
bars have been completely mounted. The
left and right roof rails are only stabilized by
means of the basic cross bars mounted.
Follow the manufacturer’s installation
instructions. Otherwise, an improperly at-
tached roof rack system or its load could be-
come detached from the vehicle.
Do not exceed the maximum roof load of
198 lb (90 kg).
Take into consideration that when the roof is
loaded, the handling characteristics are dif-
ferent from those when operating the vehi-
cles without a roof loaded.
!
Load the carriers* in such a way that the
vehicle cannot be damaged while driving.
Make sure
ț the tailgate can be completely opened
ț the tilt/sliding sunroof can be completely
raised at the rear
