When transporting goods on the roof of a vehicle, remember the following:
- Gutters of the car are made in the roof, taking into account the removal of storm drains. Therefore, you can not use conventional roof racks designed for installation on the roof of the car. We recommend using support brackets from Audi Genuine Accessories.
- These support brackets form the basis of a complete roof rack. For transporting luggage, bicycles, windsurfers, skis and boats, additionally, for safety reasons, use additional carriers. All components of this system are available from Audi.
Carefully. If other mounting systems are used for the roof rack, or if the roof rack is not installed according to the instructions, the resulting damage will not be covered by the warranty. Therefore, the roof rack support system must be attached exactly according to the enclosed instructions.
Attachment points
Attach the roof rack only at the marked locations.
Installation
When installing the support brackets, ensure that they fit exactly between the marking arrows in the roof sealing lug. The labels are only visible when the doors are open.
roof load
The load on the roof must be securely fastened. When transporting cargo, the dynamic properties of the vehicle change.
The permissible load on the roof of your vehicle is 100 kg. The roof load is determined by the sum of the weight of the anchoring system and the load.
When using fastening systems with a lower load capacity, the permissible roof load cannot be fully utilized. You can load the trunk only up to the limit specified in the instructions for its installation.
Attention. When transporting heavy or bulky items on the roof of a vehicle, do not forget that the dynamic properties of the vehicle change due to a shift in the center of gravity and an increase in aerodynamic resistance.
