Safety Instructions
Please ensure that all Atera products are correctly and securely attached to your vehicle, trailer, etc. You are responsible
for the mounting, attachment and safety of all Atera products to your vehicle, even if the mounting was done by a third
party. Therefore, check the attachments in advance and at regular intervals the products for adjustment, wear and
damage. Improper attachment could result in a car accident or serious and fatal injuries. Therefore, it is imperative that all
instructions and precautions included or shipped with your Atera products be read and understood before installing and
using the products. If the instructions and safety precautions are not understood and you are not thoroughly familiar with
the installation in advance, the Atera product should be installed by a professional installer or a suitably qualifi ed person.
The following points must be observed when the roof tent is folded on the vehicle:
Load securing
Roof tents, roof racks or roof platforms that are not installed correctly can come loose while driving and cause serious
accidents and injuries. Therefore, follow the enclosed instructions for installing, using and handling the roof tents, roof
racks or roof platforms.
Before driving, make sure that the roof tent mounts, bolts and carrier means have been properly and securely fastened.
For longer journeys, in rough terrain, the roof tent holders and screws must be checked at regular intervals - every two
hours - and tightened accordingly.
Furthermore, before driving, it must be ensured that the roof tent has been completely and correctly closed. In the case of
canopy roof tents, it must be checked whether the roof tent cover and the straps have been closed. In the case of hard-shell
roof tents, it must be checked whether the closures have been correctly locked.
Speed and driving behavior
The speed of the vehicle must always be adapted to the load carried and the current driving conditions, such as road type,
road quality, road condition, wind conditions, traffic intensity and applicable speed limits, as well as other traffic sails.
Under no circumstances should the speed exceed 130 km/h. The vehicle's handling and braking characteristics change
and air resistance increases with speed and could exert too much force on the roof tent.
Please drive slowly over speed bumps - maximum speed 10 km/h.
Roof load
The permissible total weight of the respective vehicle must not be exceeded under any circumstances. The vehicle
manufacturer's specifi cations on the maximum and dynamic roof load must be observed. The permissible roof load is not
specifi ed in the vehicle's registration certifi cate; it can only be found in the vehicle's operating instructions. Regardless of
this, the car as a whole must not be overloaded, because overloading is dangerous and simply forbidden. This applies not
only to the permissible total weight, but also to the maximum permissible roof load, because the roof load predominantly
places a load on the rear axle.
After using your roof tent, always tighten the roof rack/check that it is firmly secured before driving off.
Maximum roof load: The total weight of the load that may be carried on the roof of the car (also depends on the roof rack/
platform).
Dynamic roof load: This is how much weight can be placed on the roof of the car while driving.
Permissible total weight: The total weight of the vehicle with the load on the roof and in the vehicle.
Calculation of dynamic roof load: Weight of roof rack/roof platform + weight of roof tent + weight of payload = available
