Roof Transport SystemfPlease follow the separate instructions for fit-
ting the Roof Transport System.
f Only use Roof Transport Systems from the
Porsche Tequipment product range or Roof
Transport Systems which have been tested
and approved for your car by Porsche. Fitting
normal commercially available luggage racks
is not possible.
The Porsche Roof Transport System allows you
to carry various sports and hobby equipment.
Your Porsche partner will be pleased to tell you
about the various different uses of the Roof Trans-
port System.
Caution!
f Risk of damage to the paint on the rear lid.
Only open the rear lid if this cannot touch the
load.
f Completely remove the Roof Transport System
b e f o re u s i n g a n a u t o m a t i c c a r w a s h - r i s k o f d a -
mage to the vehicle!
f Do not exceed the maximum permitted pay-
load of 132 lbs. (60 kg), the maximum permit-
ted gross weight and the maximum permitted
axle loads.
f Please see the chapter “WEIGHTS” on
Page 272. f
Distribute load evenly, storing heavy items as
low as possible. Items of luggage must not
project beyond the side of the load area.
f Fix and secure every item to the basic carrier
with a rope or lashing strap (do not use elastic
rubber tensioners).
f Before every trip, and at regular intervals
during long trips, check that Roof Transport
System and load are secu re. Re-tighten if ne-
cessary and secure additionally by locking.
f When the Roof Transport System is loaded, the
maximum speed depends on the nature, size
and weight of the load being carried. But never
drive faster than 90 mph (140 km/h).
f With the basic carrier fitted and no load, do not
exceed a maximum speed of 110 mph
(180 km/h).
f Driving, braking and steering behavior change
due to the higher center of gravity and the gre-
ater wind-resistant area. You should adapt your
driving style appropriately.
f Since fuel consumption and noise are incre-
ased with the Roof Transport System fitted, it
should not remain on the vehicle if not in use.
