Secure the roof rack according to 
manufacturer’s instructions for instal-
lation.

The total load weight including vehicle 
occupants and luggage/cargo should not 
exceed the total load limit indicated on the 
corresponding placard located on the driv-
er’s door B-pillar.

The handling characteristics of a fully load-
ed vehicle depend greatly on the load dis-
tribution. It is therefore recommended to 
load the vehicle according to the illustra-
tions shown, with the heaviest items being 
placed towards the front of the vehicle.

Always place items being carried against 
front or rear seat backrests, and fasten 
them as securely as possible.

The heaviest portion of the cargo should 
always be kept as low as possible since it 
influences the handling characteristics of 
the vehicle.

G

Only use roof racks approved by 

Mercedes-Benz for your vehicle model to 

avoid damage to the vehicle.

Follow the manufacturer’s installation 

instructions. Otherwise, an improperly at-

tached roof rack system or its load could be-

come detached from the vehicle.

Do not exceed the maximum roof load of 

220 lb (100 kg).

Take into consideration that when the roof 

rack is loaded, the handling characteristics 

are different from those when operating the 

vehicles without the roof rack loaded.
