FAQs
Does this foot pack fit all vehicles?
No. It is specifically designed for vehicles equipped with factory fix points or T-profile rails. Always use the Thule fit guide to confirm compatibility with your specific car model.
Do I need to buy extra locks for this system?
No, the Thule 710700 comes with integrated locks as part of the foot housing.
What is the maximum weight capacity?
The foot pack supports a maximum load of 100kg, though you should always defer to your vehicle manufacturer's roof load limit if it is lower.
Can I install this without a fitting kit?
No, the fitting kit is mandatory to provide the interface between your vehicle's roof and the Thule feet.
Is the torque limiter key included?
Yes, an ergonomic torque limiter key is included in the package.
How do I know if I have fix points?
Check your vehicle owner's manual or look for small, removable plastic covers on the roof channel or edge of your roof line.
Troubleshooting
The torque limiter key is not clicking.
Ensure the bolt is threaded correctly. If it feels stuck, back it out, re-align the foot, and try again. Do not force it.
The foot assembly feels loose on the roof.
Verify that you are using the correct vehicle-specific fitting kit and that all bolts are tightened to the torque limiter specification.
Locking covers will not close.
Check to ensure the tightening bolt is fully recessed. If the bolt is protruding slightly, the cover cannot engage properly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the Thule 710700, you must first verify that you have purchased the correct vehicle-specific fitting kit (sold separately), as the foot pack relies on these custom adapters to interface with your car’s factory fix points.
- Assemble the fitting kit onto the bottom of the foot pack as indicated in your specific vehicle manual.
- Position the feet onto the vehicle roof, aligning them with the manufacturer's specified fix points.
- Tighten each bolt using the torque limiter key until you hear the audible click.
- Close the locking covers.
For care, periodically wipe the feet with a mild soap and water solution to remove road grime. Ensure the internal lock cylinders are kept clear of debris; if they become stiff, apply a light, dry lubricant to keep them operating smoothly.
