Additional checks may be necessary depending on the condition of the road surface.
Over time, the straps and screws may start to show signs of wear. They must be replaced as soon as any deterioration in quality is visible.
Be aware that driving conditions and the braking response will change according to the load on the vehicle. Adapt your driving style and reduce your speed when driving with any load on the roof.
Cross winds, sudden braking, tight curves, high speeds and driving over hilltops and uneven road surfaces alter the driving conditions of the vehicle. Reduce your speed and always observe the legal speed limit. Do not under any circumstances let your speed exceed 130 km/h.
