COOPER S
The fixing points, arrow 1, and the socket,
arrow 2, are located below the covers in the
bumper.
Remove the covers before installing the
rear luggage rack.
Loading
Because rear luggage racks raise the vehi-
cle's center of gravity when loaded, they
have a major effect on vehicle handling and
steering response.
Therefore, note the following when loading
and driving:
– Do not exceed the approved axle load
and the approved gross vehicle weight.
– Drive smoothly. Avoid sudden accelera-
tion and braking maneuvers. Take cor-
ners gently.
Power consumption
Before starting to drive, check the function
of the rear luggage rack lights.
The rear luggage rack lights must not con-
sume more than:
– Turn signals: 42 watts per side.
– Rear lights: 50 watts per side.
– Brake lights: 84 watts in total.
– Rear fog lights: 42 watts in total.
– Backup light: 42 watts in total.
Driving on racetracks
Higher mechanical and thermal loads during
racetrack operation lead to increased wear.
This wear is not covered by the warranty.
The vehicle is not designed for use in motor
sports competition.
