Installation Steps

Follow these steps for installation, referring to the main manual (A+B/X+T) for detailed diagrams and instructions.

Step 6.1: Component Preparation

Prepare the necessary components. The diagram shows a component being inserted into another, with a "max" indicator and "x4" quantity, suggesting four identical sets of this step.

Visual Description: A cylindrical component is being inserted into a housing. A circular arrow indicates rotation or locking. A "max" label is present, and the step is marked "x4".

Step 6.2: Base Component Placement

Position the base components on the vehicle's roof. Four base units (part 52PL0001) are to be placed at the front and rear of the vehicle. The diagram shows four mounting points marked with asterisks (*) on the roof, indicating where the base units should be attached.

Visual Description: A top-down view of a car roof. Four mounting points are indicated. Base parts (52PL0001) are shown being placed at these points, corresponding to front and rear positions. Specific parts (00G00033, 00G00034, 00G00225, 00G00226) are associated with these placements.

Step 6.3: Roof Bar Spacing

Measure the distance between the installed roof bars. The diagram indicates a measurement of 75.5 cm between the two bars.

Visual Description: A side view of a car roof with two parallel roof bars installed. A dimension line shows the distance between the bars as 75.5 cm.

Step 6.4: Front Bar Installation

Install the front roof bar components. This involves attaching parts 40FE0505 and 40FE0506 to the vehicle's mounting points. The process includes inserting a part, aligning it, and then tightening a screw with a tool. The minimum torque specification is 3 Nm.

Step 6.5: Rear Bar Installation

Install the rear roof bar components. This involves attaching parts 40FE0507 and 40FE0508 to the vehicle's mounting points. Similar to the front installation, this includes insertion, alignment, and tightening a screw to a minimum torque of 3 Nm.

Visual Description: A close-up view of the rear mounting area of the car. Parts 40FE0507 and 40FE0508 are shown being attached. Step 1 shows inserting a component. Step 2 shows alignment and a checkmark. Step 3 shows tightening a screw with a tool, with a "min 3 Nm" indicator.
