_& WARNING
Weak, damaged or improper straps used
to secure items to the roof rack can fail
during hard braking or in a collision and
cause serious personal injury .
- Make sure the roof rack is installed exact ­
ly as specified above
c::;, page 61 .
-Always use suitable mounting straps for
securing items to the roof rack to help
prevent items from shift ing or fly ing for­
ward.
- Items on the roof rack must always be
securely mounted .
- The use of a roof rack can negatively af­
fect the way a vehicle handles . Cargo
that is large, heavy, bulky, long o r flat

gravity and overall handling . Always
drive slowly, avoid sudden braking and
maneuvers when transporting cargo on
the roof of your vehicle.
- Never exceed the maximum permissible
load carrying capacity of the roof of your
vehicle, the perm issible axle weights and
the permiss ible total weight of your vehi­
cle
c::;, page 280, Weights .
@ For the sake of the environment
As a result of the increased wind resist­
ance created by a roof rack, your veh icle is
using fuel unnecessarily. So remove the
roof rack after using it.
