The roof luggage rack system
Description
Pay attention to the following points if you wish to transport luggage or
other items on the roof of your vehicle:
•Your car has streamlined rain channels integrated into the roof. For
this reason, it is not possible to use conventional roof racks. We therefore recommend that you only use base roof bars from the Škoda Genuine
Accessories.
•These base roof bars are the supporting elements for a complete roof
bar system. Separate additional components are required for safety
reasons for transporting luggage, bikes, surfboards, skis and boats. All
these system components are available from Škoda Dealers.
Caution
•If you use other roof rack systems or if the roof bars are not properly
fitted, then any damage which may result to your car is not covered by the
warranty agreements. 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.
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.
