The roof rack*DescriptionPay attention to the following points if yo u wish to transport luggage or other items
on the roof of your vehicle:•
A special roof luggage rack system was developed for the vehicle, that is why
you should only use a roof luggage rack which has been released for use by Škoda
Auto a.s.

additional holders are required for safety reasons for transporting luggage, bikes,
surfboards, skis and boats.
•
The basic version of the roof luggage rack system and further components are
obtainable as accessories from the specialist garages.Caution
•
If you use other roof rack sy stems or if the roof bars are not properly fitted, then
any damage which may result to your ca r is not covered by the warranty agree-
ments. It is therefore essential to pay attention to the fitting instructions supplied
with the roof luggage rack system.
•
On models fitted with a power sliding/tilting roof, ensure that the opened
sliding/tilting roof does not strike any items of luggage transported on the roof.
•
Ensure that the opened boot lid does not collide with the roof load.For the sake of the environment
The increased aerodynamic drag results in a higher fuel consumption. One should
therefore take off the roof bar system after use.
Note
A roof rail is obtainable from a specialist garage if hasn't been fitted onto an estate
car at the works, which carries out the professional fitting.

Roof loadDistribute weight evenly over the roof luggage rack system. The maximum permis-
sible roof load (including roof rack system) of 75 kg and the maximum permissible
total weight of the vehicl e should not be exceeded.

system with a lower load carrying capacity. The load transported on the roof luggage rack system must not exceed the weight limit which is stated in the fitting
instructions.
WARNING

The items which you transport on the roof bar system must be reliably
attached - risk of accident!
•
You must on no account exceed the permissible roof load, the permis-
sible axle loads and the permissible gros s weight of your vehicle - risk of
accident!
•
Please note that the handling prop erties of your vehicle change when
you transport heavy or bulky items on the roof bar system as a result of the
displacement of the centre of gravity and the increased wind attack area -
risk of accident! You must absolutely adapt your style of driving and the
speed of the vehicle to the specific circumstances.
