DANGER:

^ Danger of accidents (death/danger to yourself and/or other road users)
=> Regularly check the roof box before each trip and during an extended trip to ensure that it is seated properly and securely on the vehicle.
DANGER:
Change in vehicle handling due to higher center of gravity, roof load and larger area exposed to the wind
^ Danger of accidents (death/danger to yourself and/or other road users)
=> Adapt driving style accordingly.
=> Observe speed limit and general information on the topic "Roof transport system" in the Owner's Manual.
=> If the roof box is not in use, it should be completely removed from the vehicle in the interest of driving comfort (noise level) and fuel economy.
DANGER:
Incorrect loading of the roof box
^ Danger of accidents (death/danger to yourself and/or other road users)
=> Load the roof box so that the load is uniformly distributed in the roof box.
=> If a second attachment accessory is installed, the roof box should be far enough away from the adjacent fixture so that the two cannot bump against each other while the vehicle is underway.
=> Secure load sufficiently to prevent it from shifting during the trip.
=> Observe the maximum permissible roof load of the vehicle in accordance with the Owner's Manual!
=> Always load the roof box from the side of the road (e.g. pavement).
ATTENTION:
Incorrect installation, use or care of the roof box
^ Risk of damage to the roof of the vehicle, tailgate and/or roof box
=> Since the roof box is large, it should always be installed and removed from the roof transport system by two people.
=> Open the roof box only if the opposite lock is locked.
=> Remove the roof box from the roof of the vehicle before washing the vehicle in an automatic car wash.
=> Keep in mind the new overall vehicle height when driving through tunnels or under low branches and when driving into parking garages and underpasses.
=> Clean the roof box using soapy water only (without alcohol, chlorine or ammonia additives); other substances could attack and damage the surface.
=> Do not put stickers on the roof box. The adhesive film can dissolve the surface of the roof box or cause tension cracks.
=> Occasionally spray the locks of the roof box with a commercially available spray lubricant. The lubricant must not come into contact with the plastic surface of the roof box.
=> When opening the rear lid for the first time, ensure that there is sufficient space between the rear lid and the installed roof box. Move the roof box forward in direction of travel if necessary.
