mum roof load and roof carrier systems,
please refer to the "Technical data" sec-
tion (
୴ page 599).
Before loading
̈ Check the tire pressures and correct
them if necessary ( ୴ page 365).
̈ Clean the load compartment floor.
The load compartment floor must be
dry, cleanly swept and free of oil and
dust to reduce the risk of the load
slipping.
̈ If necessary, place anti-slip mats on
the load compartment floor.
Warning
G
After an accident, have a damaged load
compartment floor or damaged load sur-
face, the lashing eyes and lashing materi-
als inspected by a specialist workshop
having the necessary technical expertise
and tools to carry out the required work.
The manufacturer recommends that you
use an authorized Sprinter Dealer for this
purpose. In particular, work relevant to
safety or on safety-related systems must
be carried out at a qualified specialist
workshop.
! CAUTION
If you are using a roof carrier system,
observe the maximum roof load and
maximum load-bearing capacity of
the roof carrier system.
! CAUTION
As soon as the anti-slip mats start to
show signs of permanent deforma-
tion, squashed areas or tears/holes,
they are unsuitable for securing loads
and must be replaced.
