permitted gross vehicle weight. (see
identification plate
)and the kerb weight.
For the kerb weight in detail, refer to the
technical data section.

Driving with a roof load increases the
sensitivity of the vehicle to cross-winds
and has a detrimental effect on vehicle
handling due to the vehicle's higher
center of gravity. Distribute the load
evenly and secure it properly with
retaining straps. Adjust the tire pressure
and vehicle speed according to the load
conditions. Check and retighten the straps
frequently.
