Securing a roof carrier of any kind to a vehicle
that is not appro
ved for use with a roof carri-
er may lead to severe damage to the vehicle. Driving with a fitted roof carrier in-
creases the air resistance of the v

ehi-
cle and thus also the energy consumption of
the electric drive. This reduces the possible
range of the vehicle considerably. This ap-
plies to all roof carriers and the objects trans-
ported on them, e.g. bicycles and skis. Securing roof carriers
Please refer to and at the start of
the chapter on page 262.
Special roof carriers must be used to trans-
port luggage, bicycles, skis, surfboards or
