Seats and storage 84
Securing the bag in the luggage compartment
– Two belts with hooks are attached to the bottom side of
the bag. Engage the hooks into the rear fastening rings
in the luggage compartment ⇒page 83, fig. 93.
Securing the objects in the bag
– Pull the free end of the belt tight to secure it ⇒fig. 94.
NoteIf the bag is damp or wet, allow it to dry before putting it away.Roof carrierDescription
Additional loads can be transported using the roof carrier.Note the following points if you intend to carry loads on the roof:•
The rain channels are moulded into the roof as part of the aero-
dynamic roof design. It is therefore not possible to mount conven-
tional roof luggage racks. We recommend using the carrier units
from the range of Audi Genuine accessories.
•
These carrier units form the basic elements of a complete roof
carrier system. Special fixtures must then be added in order to
safely transport luggage, bicycles, skis, surf boards or boats on the
roof. All the elements of this system are available from Audi dealers.Caution
Any damage to the vehicle caused by the use of other types of roof
rack or incorrect installation will not be covered by the factory
warranty. The roof carrier system must therefore be installed exactly
according to the instructions provided.Attachment points
The roof carrier must be attached at the marked points
only.Mounting
The front feet of the carrier units must be fitted exactly onto the
locating pins between the side frame and the roof frame trim
⇒fig. 95. The pins come into view when you push the sealing lip
back off the roof frame trim using the tool supplied with the roof
carrier. The rear attachment points are marked by two small
arrows on the top edge of the side window.
