Loading
a Roof Top Box
It is important
to load a box correctly because:
1. You
will make the most of the space available
2. You
will contribute to your own safety and the safety of others
Load heavy
objects as centrally as possible - this distributes the weight of the
load evenly on the roof bars.
 If straps
and ski holders are provided with the box use them to prevent luggage
from moving.
Make sure
that the load does not obstruct the closing of the lid to prevent the
locking system from malfunctioning.
Do not exceed
the permissible gross vehicle weight. Keep within the vehicle manufacturers
recommendations for maximum roof load.
Use the ski holders as compartment dividers.
This prevents objects
from moving and is practical, keeping dirty items separate from clean
items.
In Winter:
Fasten skis and snowboards to the ski holders with the front ends
pointing to the rear of the box.
Tip:
all lo
Although luggage should stay dry within the
box it is always sensible to give them additional protection (plastic
bags). |
