WARNING

characteristics change. If you exceed the

maximum roof load, the driving

characteristics, as well as steering and

braking, will be greatly impaired. There is a

risk of an accident.
Never exceed the maximum roof load and

adjust your driving style.

only use roof carriers that have been tested

and approved for Mercedes-Benz vehicles.

This helps to prevent damage to the

vehicle.

sliding panel fully

covers, do not use metallic or hard objects
