Caution
Do not enter a car wash with carrier units installed with/without roof rack modules.
Note
◆
When driving with a roof load, make sure that the German Road Traffic Regulations (StVZO) or any coun-
try-specific regulations are observed.
◆
For reasons of convenience, it is common for the carrier units with/without roof rack modules to remain on
the vehicle, even if they are not in use. Your vehicle will consume more fuel due to increased wind resist-
ance.
◆
It is advisable to remove a carrier unit after use.
◆
Additional wind noise can result from driving with a carrier unit attached.
2.2
Safety notes to be checked before and after each journey and when in
use
WARNING
Check that the carrier units and the load to be transported are securely attached:
◆
Before the start of every journey,
◆
After approx. 10 km of the journey,
◆
approx. every 300 km on good roads
◆
Frequently on poor roads (due to vibration),
◆
Regularly to make sure that there has been no movement/displacement.
If the carrier units are not checked to make sure that they are secure and to check whether any
fasteners need tightening, they could work loose and parts may therefore be lost, despite instal-
lation being carried out properly – risk of accident!
In the event of a change in position, drive at a reduced speed until the next opportunity to stop
safely and then re-tighten the bolted connections and fixtures on the carrier units.
2.3
Safety instructions for driving with carrier units
2.3.1 Altered vehicle height
Caution
Fitting carrier units changes the height of your vehicle.
Pay particular attention to:
◆
Low-hanging branches
◆
Passages with reduced head-room clearance
◆
Entrances to garages with reduced head-room clearance
◆
Height restrictions in multi-storey car parks and underground car parks.
