Cargo loading Roof-mounted luggage rack

*

Always position and secure the

load as described above. If you do

not, it can even endanger the passen-

gers during braking or evasive maneu-

vers.

Do not exceed the permissible gross

vehicle weight and the permissible axle

loads, refer to page 180. If you do, the

operating safety of the vehicle is no

longer ensured and you are in violation

of the law.

You should never transport heavy or

hard objects unsecured in the passen-

ger compartment, as they could fly

around and pose a safety hazard to the

vehicle's occupants even during abrupt

braking or evasive maneuvers.<

A special rack system is available as an

option for your BMW. Please comply

with the precautions included with the

installation instructions.

Loading luggage rack

Roof-mounted luggage racks raise the

center of gravity of the vehicle when

they are loaded. For this reason, they

exercise a major effect on the vehicle's

handling and steering response.

You should therefore always remember

not to exceed the approved roof weight,

the approved gross vehicle weight or

the axle loads when loading the rack.

You will find the specifications under

Technical data on page 180.

Make sure that the load is distributed

evenly, and that it does not extend out-

ward to beyond the limits of the loading

surface. Always load the heaviest

pieces on the bottom. Be sure that ade-

quate clearance is maintained for rais-

ing the panorama glass sunroof, and

that objects do not project into the

opening path of the liftgate.

Always ensure that roof-mounted

loads are tightly secured, as loose

loads can shift or even fly off the roof,

posing a serious hazard for following

traffic.<

Drive smoothly. Avoid sudden accelera-

tion and braking maneuvers. Take cor-

ners gently.
