Important Information
Maximum carrying capacity: 80kg (176lbs)
Please refer to your vehicle manufacturers handbook for maximum carrying capacity of your roof racks. Always use the lower of

fi
gures. Load must be evenly distributed over the crossbars.
Do not attempt to
fi
t the NKL to your vehicle unless you fully understand this
fi
tting instructions. Please direct any questions
regarding
fi
tting to the dealer from where the NKL was purchased.
Use only non-stretch fastening ropes or straps.
Recommendations:
It is essential that all bolt connections be checked after driving a short distance when you
fi
rst install your roof racks and NKL. Bolt
connections should be checked again at regular intervals (once a week is enough, depending on road conditions, usage, loads
and distances travelled). You should also check the roof racks and NKL each time they are re-
fi
tted. Always make sure to fasten
your load securely. Please also ensure that all loads are evenly distributed and that the centre of gravity is kept as low as possible.
Long loads (e.g. canoes and kayaks) must be secured front and rear with non-stretch fastening ropes or straps.
Roof racks must be removed when putting vehicle through an automatic car wash.
Caution:
The handling characteristics of the vehicle changes when you transport a load on the roof. For safety reasons we
recommend you exercise extreme care when transporting wind-resistant loads. Special consideration must be taken into account
when cornering and braking.

It is your responsibility to ensure these

tting instructions are given to the end user or client.
