Maintenance
●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

readjust.
●Some glass/panoramic roofs and radio
antennae may not be able to be used when

●Loads should not overhang the sides of the

lowest possible centre of gravity.
●Long loads should be secured with non-
elastic straps to the front and rear of the

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

changing of direction, and braking
performance. Avoid rapid acceleration and
deceleration. Drive carefully.
