Installation:
The installation of the car luggage rack depends on the car model. Some cars have already installed the luggage rack when leaving the factory. If you don't like it, you can change it or disassemble it. Some cars are not equipped with a luggage rack when they leave the factory, but a space is reserved on the roof for the owner to install a luggage rack later. The car owner only needs to see if there is a space reserved for the installation of the support and the support position of the support on the roof. Generally, there are reserved screws on it. The leakage prevention and rust prevention of the luggage rack are relatively complicated. For those cars without reserved installation positions, the owner should not install them by himself, so as not to affect the later use of the vehicle. Moreover, the safety of the luggage rack is not as good as those models with reserved installation positions.
After installing the car luggage rack, pay attention to the following matters: (1) Regularly check the fastening of the screws, preferably once every 10 days; (2) The goods shall be tied or fixed on the luggage rack and placed evenly. If there is no flexibility, a luggage net shall be added; (3) During driving, avoid emergency braking as much as possible; (4) The cargo shall not exceed the design load bearing of the luggage rack, which is generally 30 to 50 kg.
Maintenance:
1. Do not overload the luggage rack. Pay attention to the carrying capacity of the luggage rack and the actual carrying capacity of the car;
2. Pay attention to the installation of lock cylinder and key on the luggage rack, and ensure that the lock is locked and the key is removed during use;
3. The aluminum alloy roof frame will not rust, but there will be slow oxidation in use. The rain or car washing water contains acidic or alkaline substances, which will also form certain erosion on the surface. It is normal that there will be slight stain after a long time;
4. When carrying heavy objects or other hard metal objects, it is easy to cause slight scratches on the aluminum alloy crossbar, which is a normal wear phenomenon;
5. During use, ensure that the sealing strip has been installed on the cross bar to prevent dust and reduce wind noise;
6. After the luggage rack is installed, it does not need to be removed frequently, because for cars with ordinary roofs, frequent removal of the luggage rack may damage the car paint; For vehicles installed with reserved fixing points, frequent disassembly and assembly may cause damage to the screws at the fixing points. Therefore, although the luggage rack can be disassembled and assembled, it is still necessary to be prepared to fix it on the roof for a long time when selecting.
