Notice:Loading cargo on the roof rack that weighsmore than 91 kg (200 lbs) or hangs over the rear orsides of the vehicle may damage the vehicle. Loadcargo so that it rests evenly between the crossrails,making sure to fasten cargo securely.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo when driving,check to make sure crossrails and cargo are securelyfastened. Loading cargo on the roof rack will make thevehicle’s center of gravity higher. Avoid high speeds,sudden starts, sharp turns, sudden braking or abruptmaneuvers, otherwise it may result in loss of control.If driving for a long distance, on rough roads, or at highspeeds, occasionally stop the vehicle to make sure thecargo remains in its place.
Do not exceed the maximum vehicle capacity whenloading the vehicle. For more information on vehiclecapacity and loading, seeLoading the Vehicleonpage 6!32.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo, check now andthen to make sure the luggage and cargo are stillsecurely fastened.
Be sure the cargo is properly loaded.
.If small heavy objects are placed on the roof, placethe load in the area over the rear wheels (behindthe rear side door on extended models). If needed,cut a piece of 3/8 inch plywood to fit inside thecrossrails and siderails to spread the load.If plywood is used, tie it to the siderail supports.
.Tie the load to the crossrails or the siderailsupports. Use the crossrails only to keep theload from sliding. To move the crossrails, pull outon the latch release handle at each end. Slide thecrossrail to the desired position balancing the forceside to side. Push the release handle back into thelatched position and slide the crossrail back andforth slightly to be sure the latch snaps securelyinto place.
.If needed to carry long items, move the crossrailsas far apart as they will go. Tie the load to thecrossrails and the siderails or siderail supports.Also tie the load to the bumpers. Do not tie theload so tightly that the crossrails or siderailsare damaged.
.After moving a crossrail, be sure it is securelylocked into the siderail.
A Center High-Mounted Stoplamp (CHMSL) is locatedabove the glass or above the rear load doors.
If items are loaded on the roof of the vehicle, careshould be taken not to block or damage theCHMSL unit.
