Roof bars fitting instructions

Complete guide for assembling roof bars on your car

Roof bars are an essential accessory for anyone needing to transport luggage, sports equipment, or any other bulky load on the roof of their car. Following the fitting instructions carefully is crucial to ensure the bars are securely and stably fixed.

• Choose the roof bars: first and foremost, it's important to make sure you have the right roof bars for your car model. Roof bars come in different sizes and configurations, so it's crucial to select ones that fit perfectly onto the longitudinal bars of your car's roof or onto the mounting points provided by the manufacturer. Find out which ones are suitable for your car through the roof bars configurator on our website.
• Prepare the tools and the car roof: gather the necessary tools for assembly, included in the roof bar and specific kit packages. Clean and dry the car roof to ensure the mounting surface is free of dirt or residues that could compromise the bars' adhesion.
• Position the bars on the car roof: lift the roof bars and place them on the car roof, ensuring an even distance between them and positioning them correctly according to the instructions. Ensure the bars are aligned with the longitudinal bars of the roof or with the provided mounting points.
• Attach the bars to the car roof: once positioned correctly, attach the bars to the car roof using the screws and brackets provided with the bars. Make sure to tighten the screws securely, following the tightening torque indicated in the instructions.
• Check stability and safety: After attaching the bars to the car roof, it's essential to check their stability and safety. Try pushing and pulling the bars slightly to ensure they are securely fixed and do not move. Also, check that the bars are level and parallel to the car roof to ensure evenly distributed load.

Following these steps carefully will ensure a safe and stable assembly of roof bars on the car roof. Always remember to consult the specific instructions and refer to the car manual for any recommendations or precautions. With the roof bars correctly mounted, you'll be able to transport any type of load safely, making your travels more comfortable and convenient.
