Roof-mounted luggage rack for the hardtop*

A special roof-rack system is available 
as an optional extra for your BMW. 
Please observe the precautions 
included with the installation instruc-
tions.

Anchorages

Access to the anchorages:

To fold up the covers, please use the 
tool provided with the roof-rack system.

Loading and driving notes

Roof-mounted luggage racks raise the 
center of gravity of the vehicle when 
they are loaded. For this reason, they 
exercise a major effect on the vehicle's 
handling and steering response.

You should therefore always remember 
not to exceed the approved roof load 
capacity, the approved gross vehicle 
weight or the maximum axle loads 
when loading the rack. These weights 
are listed under Technical data on 
page 

168

.

Make sure that the load is not too bulky, 
and attempt to distribute it evenly. 
Always load the heaviest pieces first so 
that they are at the bottom. Make sure 
that no objects will be in the way when 
the luggage compartment lid is opening 
or closing.

Secure the roof-mounted luggage cor-
rectly and securely to prevent it from 
shifting or being lost during driving.

Drive smoothly and avoid sudden 
acceleration or braking. Do not corner 
at high speeds.

The roof-mounted luggage rack and the 
roof load increase the aerodynamic 
resistance: increased fuel consumption 
and additional stress on the vehicle's 
body are the result.
