Maintenance

Long loads should be secured with non-
elastic straps to the front and rear of the
vehicle.
Objects with pointed ends (e.g. ski poles)
should be carried with the pointed ends to
the rear of the vehicle.
Remove all loose or removable objects
from the load prior to loading.
Make sure all loads are securely fastened
with non-elastic straps. Check regularly
during longer journeys.
A loaded roof rack system can alter the
performance of your vehicle. Be especially
aware of the effects of side winds,
changing of direction, and braking
performance. Avoid rapid acceleration and
deceleration. Drive carefully.
Note that the total height of the vehicle
increases when upright loads are carried.
Products should be locked during transport
if they have locks fitted.
Check and replace worn out or defective
parts.
Keep the product clean and maintained.
Never drive into a car wash with the roof
rack system fitted.
Lubricate locks and adjusting screws at
regular intervals.
Remove the products from the vehicle
when not in use. Make sure all loose parts
are stored safely.
Clean the car roof and surfaces of the
product that will be in contact with the car
roof.
Follow the fitting instructions for fitting the
product to your vehicle. Make sure all steps
are carried out in order.
Set crossbars a minimum distance of
700mm (27 1/2") apart where no other
distance is specified in the fitting
instructions. This is especially important
when carrying long loads.
Check unit is securely attached whenever
you refit it to the vehicle. If the unit feels
loose, refer to the fitting instructions and
readjust.
