loads and the approved gross vehicle
weight.

The roof load should not be too large in
area.

Always load the heaviest pieces on the
bottom.
▷
Fasten the roof-mounted luggage se‐
curely, for instance using lashing straps.
▷
Do not let objects project into the opening
path of the tailgate.

Drive smoothly. Avoid sudden acceleration
and braking maneuvers. Take corners gen‐
tly.
