Practical information
7Maximum load distributed over the
transverse roof bars, for a loading height
not exceeding 40 cm (except bicycle carrier):
75

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 profile of the road to
avoid damaging the roof bars and the fixings
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.
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 firmly.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more
susceptible to the effects of side winds and its
stability may be affected.
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.
Direct fitting on roof

The transverse bars must only be fixed at the
four anchorage points located on the roof frame.
These points are concealed by the vehicle doors
when the doors are closed.
The roof bar fixings have a stud which must be
inserted into the opening of each anchorage
point.
Bonnet
Stop & Start
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
you must switch off the ignition to avoid any
risk of the engine restarting automatically.
Take care with objects or clothing that could
be caught in the blades of the cooling fan
or in certain moving components - risk of
strangulation and serious injury!
The location of the interior bonnet release lever prevents the bonnet being
opened when the left-hand front door is
closed.
When the engine is hot, handle the
exterior safety catch and the bonnet stay
with care (risk of burns), using the protected
area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not to
damage the safety catch.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy
conditions.
Cooling of the engine when stopped
The engine cooling fan may start after
the engine has been switched off.
Take care with objects or clothing that
could be caught in the blades of the fan!
