Manual Description
If luggage or cargo is to be carried on the roof, you must observe the following: Your vehicle has aerodynamic rain gutters molded into the roof. This is why conventional roof luggage racks cannot be used. We recommend using roof racks from the original accessories program. Thes e approved roof racks are the basis for a complete roof rack system.
Additional attachments for the basic roof rack are necessary to safely transport luggage, bicycles, surfboards, skis or small boats. All necessary hardware for these systems is available at your dealer. We recommend that you keep the installation instructions for your roof rack system together with your Owner's literature in the vehicle. Always check the roof rack mountings and hardware before each trip and during a trip to make sure everything is securely tightened.
If necessary, retighten the mountings and check the entire system from time to time. After mounting a roof rack system, or when you transport objects on the roof of your vehicle, the height of the vehicle is naturally increased. Be careful when driving under low bridges or in parking garages for example. This could cause damage to the load and even the vehicle itself.
