- This product cannot be used in vehicles without roof rails. Used for carrying loads on your vehicle. It is required for the installation of bicycle carrier, ski carrier, roof box etc. products. This product is mounted on the roof rails of the vehicle.
- In some vehicles, it can only be mounted through holes in the inner surface of the roof rails. For this situation, auxiliary connection kits have been developed. These auxiliary connection kits are included in the product package.
- The maximum load limit in the vehicle with this product is 75 kg / 165 lb. (Regardless of 2 or 3 aluminium bars, the legal limit is 75 kg / 165 lb.) When the vehicle is parked, a maximum load of 150 kg / 330 lb is recommended for the product consisting of 2 aluminium bars.
- The product has an extra lock mechanism after assembly. It is a deterrent against theft. These locks must be opened with a key for disassembly of the product.
- To confirm the compatibility of the product with other products, please check the technical drawing of the aluminum bar in the listing images. It cannot be guaranteed that it will be fully compatible with any other brand or product from another company.

They went on well but I am experiencing whistling when driving at higher speeds. Is there anything I can do about that?
Hello,
Depending on its positioning, this product may produce a whistling sound due to resonance on certain vehicle models. As the manufacturer, we recommend storing the product in a garage when not in use for carrying loads. Thanks to its easy installation design, it can be quickly mounted on the vehicle when needed.
Note:
Leaving the bars attached to the vehicle when not carrying a load increases fuel consumption by 5%–10%.
If the vehicle remains parked for extended periods in an area with intense sunlight, color differences may occur between the area covered by the bar (which is shielded from the sun) and the surrounding exposed areas.
Suggestions for reducing noise:
1. If the noise level is high but you still wish to keep the bars on the vehicle, you can reposition them further toward the rear of the vehicle. While we cannot guarantee this will completely resolve the issue, we believe it will reduce the noise.
2. To prevent resonance and whistling sounds, you can wrap flexible cords diagonally around the bar, creating a pattern of at least 7–8 strands. There are many videos on YouTube demonstrating solutions for this issue. Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caGCLkke3kI
