Roof box on the popup roof

Hi,

If I have a roofbox, should I unload it first before putting the popup up? Or, is there a weight limit for the popup which means some stuff could be kept in the roofbox?

Thanks

Details should be Handbook, but previous models it was 50kgms.

Handbook from T5.1 onwards says 50KG roof down, zero with roof up. Early vans were 100kg down 50KG Up, given the problems some have with sagging roofs & the fact that VW have downrated the load over time, I wouldn't be keen to put anything more than an empty roof box on in the raised position.
