Safety instructions
BMW 3 Series:Do not exceed the roof
load of 75 kg (the weight of both bars is
4.3 kg plus attachments plus payload).
BMW 5 Series:Do not exceed the roof
load of 100 kg (the weight of both bars
is 4.3 kg plus attachments plus
payload).
Check all screw connections and
connections on the supports and
attachments before every journey to
ensure that they are tight and tighten
them if necessary.
On long journeys in particular the
screw connections between the
roof bars and the car roof must be
checked at regular intervals (at least
every 1000 km) to ensure that they are
tight and tightened if necessary. If you
are driving over poor road surfaces,
check the screw connections every two
hours.

Distribute the load evenly and keep the
centre of gravity as low as possible as
well as securing the load with suitable
lashing straps to prevent its moving.
Follow the regulations of the Road
Traffic Act and national regulations for
roof loads.
!
When carrying loads on your roof adjust
your speed to the objective conditions
(road condition, road surface, side wind,
etc.) and the general traffic conditions.
We recommend that you adhere to the
guide speed.
General instructions
Keep the enclosed “Safety certificate”
with its letter code in a safe place so
that you can order a new coded wrench
from your BMW dealer if you lose the
original one.

Default adjustment of the roof bar
The following figures show the
gutter on the BMW 3 Series. On
the BMW 3 Series there are two struts
in the gutter recess, which are not
present on the BMW 5 Series. The
installation work for the roof bar on the
BMW 5 Series is therefore almost
identical.
The installation work is shown on the
front roof bar. Proceed in exactly the
same way to install the rear roof bar.

Insert the gutter opener (h) into the
recess (2) on the gutter flap (1) and
press it in the direction indicated by the
arrow. Open the gutter flap until it locks
into position.

you affix the gutter protector into the
gutter.

Instructions for use: The ideal
temperature for the work is 20°C.
If it is not possible to complete the work
in this temperature, we recommend
that you leave the roof bars on the roof
for 24 hours afterwards.

Slide the gutter protector (k) bearing the
letter L under the left connector (1) on
the gutter flap and affix the gutter
protector to the surface of the gutter so
that it covers the vertical metal edge.
Proceed in the same way with the right
gutter protector bearing the letter R.

The special wrench has two
functions. When the handle (1) is
removed the angle wrench (2) is used
as an Allen key for tightening and
undoing the Allen bolts. The angle
wrench (2) must be connected to the
handle (1) (see arrows) to tighten the
coded screws.

To attach the wrench to the code screw
line up the arrows on the screw with
those on the special wrench (3).
