Roof Transport System
Please follow the separate instructions for
fitting the Roof Tra nsport System.
Only use Roof Transport Systems from the
Porsche Tequipment product range or Roof
Transport Systems which have been tested
and approved for your car by Porsche. Fitting
normal commercially available luggage racks
is not possible.
The Porsche Roof Transport System allows you
to carry various sports and hobby equipment. Your
Porsche partner will be pleased to tell you about
the various different uses of the Roof Transport
System .
Caution!
Risk of damage to the paint on the rear lid.
Only open the rear lid if this cannot touch the
load.
Completely remove the Roof Transport
System before using an automatic car wash -
risk of damage to the vehicle!
Do not exceed the maximum permitted
payload of 132 lbs. (60 kg), the maximum
permitted gross weight and the maximum
permitted axle loads.
Please observe the chapter ”WEIGHTS” on
page 302.
Distribute load evenly, storing heavy items as
low as possible. Items of luggage must not
project beyond the side of the load area.
Fix and secure every item to the basic carrier
with a rope or lashing strap (do not use elastic
rubber tension ers).
Before every trip, and at regular intervals
during long trips, check that Roof Transport
System and load are secure. Re-tighten if
necessary and secure a dditional ly by locking.
When the Roof Transport System is lo aded, the
maximum speed depends on the nature, size
and weight of the load being carried. But never
drive faster than 90 mph (140 km/h).
With the basic carrier fitted and no load, do
not exceed a maximum speed of 110 mph
(180 km/h).
Driving, braking and steering behavior change
due to the higher center of gravity and the
greater wind-resistant area. You should adapt
your driving style appropriately.
Since fuel consumpti on and noise are
increased with the Roof Transport System
fitted, it should not remain on the vehicle if not
in use.
