Load carrier - Roof loads
Loading
General
Load capacity is affected by extra accessories
mounted on the car, such as a towbar, the load
on the towball (75 kg with trailer hitched), load
carriers and roof box, as well as the passengers’
combined weight. The load capacity of the car
is reduced by the number of passengers and
their weight.
WARNING!
The cars driving characteristics change de-
pending on how heavily it is loaded and how
the load is distributed.
Fitting the load carriers
1. Make sure the load carrier is placed in the
right direction (see the marking on the decal
under the cover).
2. Fit the guide pins into the guide holes (1).
3. Carefully lower the bracket on the other side
to the roof.
4. Screw the knob up a bit.
Press the knob against the roof bracket
catch the hook in the roof bracket under
the roof rail.
5. Screw the load carrier in place.
6. Fit the guide pins of the other brackets into
the guide holes.
7. Screw the load carrier in place.
8. Check that the hook is properly secured in
the roof bracket.
9 Tighten the knobs alternately until the
carrier feels secure.
10. Replace the cover.
11. Regularly check that the knobs are
securely tightened.

Load carrier attachment points
If you use load carriers
· To avoid damaging your car and to achieve
the best level of safety when driving, we
recommend that you only use load carriers
that Volvo has specially designed for your
car.
· Check periodically that the load carriers
and load are properly secured. Lash the
load securely with suitable straps.
· Distribute the load evenly over the load
carriers. Do not load lopsidedly. Place the
heaviest items at the bottom.
· Keep in mind that the cars wind resistance
and fuel consumption increase in proportion
to the size of the load.
· Drive gently. Avoid quick accelerations,
heavy braking and taking curves hard.
WARNING!
Load no more than 100 kg on the roof, in-
clusive of the load carriers or roof box.
The cars centre of gravity and driving char-
acteristics are altered by roof loads.
