CITROEN C3 Aircross - Bonnet

128
Practical information
Fitting on longitudinal bars
The transverse bars must be xed at the
markings located on the longitudinal bars.
Sunroof
Check that the load does not pass below
the roof bars so that it does not impede the
movements of the sunroof - risk of major
damage!
Recommendations
Distribute the load uniformly, taking care
to avoid overloading one of the sides.
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as close
as possible to the roof.
Secure the load rmly.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more
susceptible to the e󰀨ects of side winds and its
stability may be a󰀨ected.
Regularly check the security and tight
fastening of the roof bars, at least before each
trip.
Remove the roof bars once they are no longer
needed.
Maximum load distributed over the roof
bars, for a loading height not exceeding
40 cm:
– without longitudinal bars: 50 kg.
– with longitudinal bars: 45 kg.
As this value may change, please verify the
maximum load quoted in the guide supplied
with the roof bars.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the speed
of the vehicle to the prole of the road to
avoid damaging the roof bars and the xings
on the vehicle.
Be sure to refer to national legislation in order
to comply with the regulations for transporting
objects that are longer than the vehicle.
