Installing the crossbars
i
Spare parts are available as Mercedes-Benz
accessories. Contact your authorized
Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center.
Warning! G
Please follow these installation instructions
carefully. Caution should be exercised to
avoid damage to the vehicle while installing
the crossbars. Also, be careful not to injure
yourself or others while installing and ad-
justing the crossbars or loading items on
them.
Each individual step of the installation in-
structions, the warning notices, the general
safety precautions and the instructions for
use must be followed exactly. If the cross-
bars are not mounted correctly, they and the
objects attached to them could come loose
from your vehicle and cause an
accident, thereby injuring you and other per-
sons and/or causing damage to property,
including damage to your vehicle.
Warning! G
Every time the crossbars are mounted, be-
fore you set off on a journey and periodically
during longer journeys, check all the screws
on the bars to make sure that they are se-
cure, and tighten them if necessary. Repeat
these checks at regular intervals as
road-surface conditions dictate, and at least
after every 1500 miles (2500 km) of contin-
uous use.
Otherwise, the crossbars, mounted acces-
sories and the objects attached to them
could come loose from the vehicle causing
an accident, thereby injuring you and other
persons and/or causing damage to proper-
ty, including damage to your vehicle.
Do not use lubricant on the screws of the
crossbars. The screws could work loose and
the crossbars could become detached from
your vehicle, together with the objects at-
tached to them causing an accident, thereby
injuring you and other persons and/or caus-
ing damage to property, including damage
to your vehicle.
Warning! G
Only install the crossbars at the exact loca-
tions designated on the roof rails. The desig-
nated locations for the front crossbars are
between the markings engraved on the in-
side of the roof rails (
୴ page 298). The des-
ignated locations for the rear crossbars are
between the gaps on the roof rails
(
୴ page 298).
