above the doors.
Fold the cover outwards.
Fitting
Follow the installation instructions for the roof
rack.
Make sure that there is sufficient space to raise
and open the Glass Roof.
Loads
A loaded roof rack alters the vehicle's road be‐
haviour and steering response by shifting its cen‐
tre of gravity.
When loading and driving, bear the following in
mind:
▷ Do not exceed the permitted roof and axle
loads or the permitted gross weight.
▷ Make sure that there is sufficient space to
raise and open the Glass Roof.
▷ Distribute the roof load evenly.
▷ The roof load must not be spread over a large
area.
▷ Place heavy items of luggage at the bottom.
▷ Securely fasten the luggage, for example with
tensioning straps.
▷ Do not allow objects to protrude into the
swing range of the boot lid.
▷ Drive cautiously and avoid sudden accelera‐
tion, braking or cornering.
