Kia Cee'd: Exterior features / Roof rack (for wagon)

If the vehicle has a roof rack, you can
load cargo on top of your vehicle.
We recommend to obtain the crossbars
and fixing components needed to install
the roof rack on your vehicle from an
authorized Kia dealer.
✽ NOTICE
- The crossbars (if equipped) should be
placed in the proper load carrying
positions prior to placing items onto
the roof rack.
- If the vehicle is equipped with a sunroof,
be sure not to position cargo onto
the roof rack in such a way that it could
interfere with sunroof operation.
- When the roof rack is not being used to
carry cargo, the crossbars may need to
be repositioned if wind noise is detected.
CAUTION
- When carrying cargo on the roof
rack, take the necessary precautions
to make sure the cargo does
not damage the roof of the vehicle.
- When carrying large objects on
the roof rack, make sure they do
not exceed the overall roof length
or width.
- When you are carrying cargo on
the roof rack, do not operate the
sunroof (if equipped).
WARNING
- The following specification is the
maximum weight that can be
loaded onto the roof rack.
Distribute the load as evenly as
possible across the crossbars (if
equipped) and roof rack and
secure the load firmly.

Loading cargo or luggage in
excess of the specified weight
limit on the roof rack may damage
your vehicle.
- The vehicle center of gravity will
be higher when items are loaded
onto the roof rack. Avoid sudden
starts, braking, sharp turns,
abrupt maneuvers or high speeds
that may result in loss of vehicle
control or rollover resulting in an
accident.
- Always drive slowly and turn corners
carefully when carrying
items on the roof rack. Severe
wind updrafts, caused by passing
vehicles or natural causes, can
cause sudden upward pressure
on items loaded on the roof rack.
This is especially true when carrying
large, flat items such as
wood panels or mattresses. This
could cause the items to fall off
the roof rack and cause damage
to your vehicle or others around
you.
- To prevent damage or loss of
cargo while driving, check frequently
before or while driving to
make sure the items on the roof
rack are securely fastened.
To install or remove a roof carrier, you
can use the mounting bracket and cover
on the roof.
When you install a roof carrier, use the
following procedure.
