2003 VOLVO XC90
Positioning the load carriers
Make sure that the wing-shaped load carriers are installed on the roof rails with the rounded edge
forward (see the inset illustration above). The load carriers are identical and can be placed anywhere
along the roof rails.
When not in use, we recommend that the front load carrier be placed approximately 2 inches (5 cm) in
front of the center roof rail anchorage point and the rear load carrier approximately 1.5 inches (3.5 cm)
in front of the rear rail anchorage. This will help to reduce wind noise.
NOTE: Volvo accessories mounted on these load carriers will require T-track mounting hardware for
correct installation. Please consult your Volvo retailer.
Installing the load carriers
Make sure that the load carrier is pressed firmly out against the roof rail. Screw the load carrier in place.
Use the supplied torque wrench and tighten to the mark on the wrench (corresponding to 6 Nm). See
illustration.
