THULE RACK GUIDELINES
When using Thule Load carriers and accessories, the user must understand the precautions. The points
listed below will assist you in using the rack system and will encourage safety.
• For quality fits and safety, use only the recommended rack or accessory as stated in Thule’s current
Fit Guide. Do not assume a rack will fit, always check the current Fit Guide when obtaining a new
vehicle.
• The maximum load specified in the assembly instructions is not to be exceeded. However, this limit
is always subordinate to the maximum load recommended by the manufacturer of the car itself. It
is always the lower maximum recommended load that applies.
Max roof load = load carrier
any fitted carrier acces the weight of the load itself.
• Always make sure all doors are open when mounting a roof rack system. Make sure all knobs, bolts,
screws, straps, and locks are firmly attached, tightened and locked before every trip. Knobs, bolts,
screws, straps and locks must be periodically inspected for signs of wear, corrosion, and fatigue.
Check your load at stops during the trip to ensure continued fastening security.
• Check local and state laws governing projection of objects beyond the perimeter of a vehicle. Be
aware of the width and height of your cargo since low clearance branches, bridges, and parking
garages can affect the load. All cargo will affect the vehicle’s driving behavior. Never drive with
any lock, knob or rack in an open or unlocked position. All long loads such as, but not limited to,
sailboards, surfboards, kayaks, canoes, and lumber must be tied down front and rear to the bumpers
or tow hooks of the vehicle.
• Remove your Thule rack and accessories when they are not in use and before entering automatic
car washes.
• All locks must be turned and moved periodically to ensure smooth operation. Use graphite or dry
lubricant to help this. Thule locks are designed to deter vandalism and theft but should not be
considered theft proof. Remove valuable gear if your vehicle is unattended for an extended period.
Place at least one key in the glove compartment.
• For safety to your vehicle and rack system, obey all posted speed limits and traffic cautions. Adapt
your speed to the conditions of the road and the load being carried.
• Do not use Thule load carriers and accessories for purposes other than those for which they were
designed. Do not exceed their carrying capacity. Failure to follow these guidelines or the product’s
instructions will void the warranty.
• All loads must be secured using the provided straps.
• Consult with your Thule dealer if you have any questions regarding the operations and limits of
Thule products. Review all instructions and warranty information carefully.
• Not for use on trailers or towed vehicles.
• Not for offroad use.
• Keep bicycle tires away from hot exhaust.
