Important Information:
Recommendations.
Please refer to the vehicle manufactures operating manual for the maximum roof load rating.
It is essential that all bolts and screws connections are checked after driving a short distance when first install your Rhino-
Rack crossbars. Bolt and screw connections should be rechecked again at regular intervals (probably once a week is
enough depending on road conditions, usage, load and distances traveled). You should also check the crossbars each time
they are refitted.
Crossbars and accessories should be cleaned and all screw threads lubricated at regular intervals.
Rhino-Rack offers a lifetime warranty to the original purchaser of the Rhino-Rack roof rack system and accessories.
Rhino-Rack cannot be held responsible for incorrect mounting of the roof rack system or for usage that exceeds vehicle and
production tolerances.
Make sure to fasten your load securely. Please ensure that all loads are evenly distributed and that the centre of gravity is
kept as low as possible, use only non-stretch fastening ropes and straps.
SENSITIVITY TO CROSSWINDS, BEHAVIOUR IN CURVES AND BRAKING:
The handling characteristics of the vehicle change when you transport a load on the roof. For safety reasons we
recommend you exercise extreme care when transporting wind resisting loads. Special consideration must be taken into
account when braking.
PLEASE REMOVE CROSSBARS WHEN PUTTING THE VEHICLE THROUGH AN AUTOMATIC CAR WASH.
LOAD RATINGS:
The vehicle manufactures recommended load rating is the maximum permissible load per pair of bars ( include the weight
of the roof racks 5Kg). When roof bars are to be used in extreme off-road conditions, build a safety factor 1.5 into this
maximum load limit. Although the roof racks are tested and approved to AS1235-2000, Australian road conditions can be
much more rigorous.
NOTE FOR FITTERS AND DELALERS:
It is your responsibility to ensure instructions are give to the end user or client.
