This is the Roof box companies official fitting guide for the Atera SIGNO cross bars for raised roof rails.
Available in galvanized steel or in aluminium.
These bars are extremely easy to use with a very secure recessed locking system.
Once theses bars are set for your vehicle, the clamps stay in the same position, so even if you remove the bars and refit them to the same vehicle at a later date, there is no need to re-adjust the clamps.
Within the box along with a pair of cross bars, you also get a rubber insert,a unique numbered roof bar key, 4 end caps (square for steel and oval for aero bars), a 4mm allen key as well as a set of instructions.
Loosen the adjustment bolt on the underside of all four feet which will allow you to adjust the feet to fit the width of the raised roof rails.
Measure the width of the raised rails and if wider than 38mm, adjust the clamping block on all four feet.
Place the bars on the vehicles raised roof rails making sure the distance between the cross bars is approximately 700 mm.
Equalise the amount of bar that sticks out on each side beyond the feet by sliding the bar into position.
Turn the bar 90 degrees and tighten the adjustment screw on all four feet hand tight.
Now tighten the splined locking bolt hand tight on all four feet by pulling back the Atera badged rubber lock cover and inserting the splined locking key. You will see the foot clamp tightening around the raised roof rail. Tighten hand tight.
Attach each bar end cap. For steel bars push each end cap over the end of each bar. For aero bars push each end cap into the end of each bar.
Now cut and insert the rubber strip. For steel bars there is only one rubber insert for the underside of the bar which needs to be cut and pushed into the underside channel. For aero bars as well as the underside rubber strip there is also a long rubber strip for the top T-track channel for each bar.
Check that both bars are secure by a quick "shake test".
Caution - Always refer to your vehicles hand book to check the maximum permissible load for your vehicle.
Regularly check all fixings are secure before each journey.
