Land Rover Discovery: Roof racks and load carriers
- A loaded roof rack can reduce the
stability of the vehicle, particularly
when cornering and during
crosswinds.
- Driving off-road with a loaded
roof rack is not recommended.
Fit only a roof rack system that is designed
for use with your vehicle. For further
information, consult your Retailer/
Authorised Repairer.
The maximum load for a Land Rover
approved roof rack system is 75 kg while
driving on-road. Off-road driving reduces
the limit to 50 kg. The weight of the
approved roof rack system is not
calculated as part of the load.
If an alternative roof rack system is used,
the weight of that system must be
included as part of the load weight.
Loads must be evenly distributed without
overhanging the rack. After travelling 50
km (30 miles), check the security of the
roof rack and any load.
Luggage anchor points

area should be properly secured.

position. Move the lashing eye slightly
until you hear a click. The lashing eye
is now secured. Turn the button
clockwise to lock.
Note: A range of approved luggage
retention accessories is available from your
Retailer/Authorised Repairer.
