Important safety notes
WARNING
Only use roof racks approved by Mercedes-Benz for your vehicle model to avoid
damage
to the vehicle.
Follow the manufacturer's installation
instructions. Otherwise, an improperly
attached roof rack system or its load could
become detached from the vehicle.
Do not exceed the maximum roof load of
220 lb (100 kg).
Take into consideration that when the roof
rack is loaded, the handling characteristics
are different from those when operating the
vehicle without the roof rack loaded.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that
you
only use roof carriers that have been tested
and approved for Mercedes-Benz vehicles.
This helps to prevent damage to the
vehicle.
Position the load on the roof carrier in such
a way that the vehicle will not sustain
damage even when it is in motion.
Depending on the vehicle equipment,
ensure that when the roof carrier is
installed you can:
• raise the sliding sunroof fully
• open the panorama roof with power tilt/sliding panel fully
• open the trunk lid fully
To avoid damaging or scratching
the
covers, do not use metallic or hard objects
to open them.
