Operation
For the sake of the environment
When cross bars and a roof carrier system are
inst
alled, the increased air resistance means
that the vehicle uses more fuel.
Attach the cross bars of the roof carri-
er syst
em
Fig. 182 Leon/Leon SC: attachment points for
the r
oof
r
ailings for the roof carrier system.

roof r
ailings for the roof carrier system.
The crossbars are the basis of a series of spe-
c
i
al
roof carrier systems. For safety reasons,
special fixtures must be used to safely trans-
port luggage, bicycles, skis, surf boards or
boats on the roof. Suitable accessories can
be acquired at SEAT dealerships.
Always secure the crossbars and the roof car-
rier system properly. Always take the assem-
bly instructions that come with the crossbars
and the roof carrier system in question into
account.

WARNING

tem when they are in perfect condition and
are properly secured.
Always secure the crossbars and the roof
carrier system properly.
Check threaded joints and attachments

you have travelled a short distance. When
making long trips, check the threaded joints
whenever you stop for a rest.
Always fit the special roof carrier systems
correctly for wheels, skis and surfboards, etc.
Do not modify or repair the crossbars or
