Roof load and loading on load
carriers
For loading on the car's roof, the load carriers
that Volvo have developed are recommended.
This is in order to avoid damage to the car and
in order to achieve the maximum possible
safety during a journey. Volvo's load carriers
are available for purchase at authorised Volvo
retailers.
Carefully follow the installation instructions
supplied with the carriers.
•
Distribute the load evenly over the load
carriers. Put the heaviest objects at the
bottom.
•
Check periodically that the load carriers
and load are properly secured. Lash the
load securely with retaining straps.
•
If the load is longer than the car at the
front, e.g. a canoe or kayak, fit the towing
eye to its front socket and attach the bun-
gee to this.
•
The size of the area exposed to the wind,
and therefore fuel consumption, increase
with the size of the load.
•
Drive gently. Avoid quick acceleration,
heavy braking and hard cornering.
WARNING
The car's centre of gravity and driving cha-
racteristics are altered by roof loads.
Follow the car's specifications with regard
to weights and maximum permitted load.

mum of 5 kg (11 lbs).
