Maximum permissible roof load
The maximum permitted roof load is 100 kg. The roof load limit refers to the combined weight of the load carrier, the mounts or roof bars and the load carried on the roof .
Be sure you know the weight of the load carrier, the mounts or roof bars and the items you want to transport on the roof. Weigh them if necessary. Never carry a total of more than the maximum permissible roof load.
