Seats and storage compartments124
For safety reasons, only luggage racks and accessories approved by SEAT
should be used.
It is essential that you follow the assembly instructions included with the
bars exactly, being especially careful to position the front and rear luggage
compartment cover bars on the special housings on the longitudinal bars.
You must also respect their position according to the direction of travel indi-
cated in the assembly manual. Not following these instructions may cause
marks on the longitudinal bars.
Distribute the load evenly. A maximum load of 40 kg only is permitted for
each roof rack system support bar, the load must be distributed evenly along
the entire length. However, the maximum load permitted for the entire roof
(including the support system) of 75 kg must not be exceeded nor should the
total weight of the vehicle be exceeded. See the Technical Data section.
When transporting heavy or large objects on the roof, any change in the
normal vehicle behaviour due to a change in the centre of gravity or an
increased wind resistance must be taken into account. For this reason, a suit-
able speed and driving style must be used.
For those vehicles fitted with a sliding/tilting sunroof*, ensure that it does
not interfere with the load on the roof rack system when opened.
