4. Store the divider appropriately.
Convenience Net
This vehicle may have a convenience
net in the rear of the vehicle. Attach it
to the cargo tie-downs for storing
small loads.
Do not use the net to store heavy
loads.
Roof Rack System
The vehicle may be equipped with
side-rails for a roof rack system. Cargo
must be secured with properly
installed cross rails and other
accessories designed to carry cargo.
These can be purchased from your
dealer.
{Warning
Before driving and occasionally
during a trip, check that cargo is
securely fastened, rests evenly
between the cross rails and does
not block the vehicle's lamps or
windows. Never load cargo directly
on the roof of the vehicle or allow
cargo to hang over the rear or sides (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
of the vehicle. Never load cargo
without first properly installing
cross rails and other accessories
designed to carry cargo. Personal
injury, death or damage to the
vehicle or other property may occur.
If driving for a long distance, on rough
roads, or at high speeds, occasionally
stop the vehicle to make sure the
cargo remains in its place.
Cargo Weight Limits
Do not exceed the maximum cargo
weight for the roof rack system,
including the weight of the cross rails
and any other accessories used to
carry the cargo such as bike racks or
roof boxes. The maximum cargo
weight that can be loaded onto the
roof rack system is 100 kg (220 lb)
or the weight designated in the
instructions that came with the cross
rails or other roof rack accessories,
whichever is less.

{Warning
Never load the roof rack with more
weight than specified in this
section. Loading cargo on the roof
rack will make the vehicle's center
of gravity higher. To avoid losing
control of the vehicle, avoid
overloading, high speeds, sudden
starts, sharp turns, sudden braking,
or abrupt maneuvers when carrying
cargo on the roof rack.
The weight of any cargo carried on the
roof rack system must be included in
calculating the loaded weight of the
vehicle. Do not exceed the maximum
vehicle capacity when loading the
vehicle, including cargo carried on the
roof rack system and passengers and
cargo carried in the vehicle. For more
information on vehicle capacity and
loading, see Vehicle Load Limits 0220.

DRIVING AND OPERATING 255
Driving in Narrow Lanes
Vehicles in adjacent traffic lanes or
roadside objects may be incorrectly
detected when located along the
roadway.
Do Not Use ACC on Hills and When
Towing a Trailer
Do not use ACC when driving on steep
hills or when towing a trailer. ACC will
not detect a vehicle in the lane while
driving on steep hills. If the brakes are
applied, ACC disengages.
Disengaging ACC
There are three ways to
disengage ACC:
.Step lightly on the brake pedal.
.Press*.
.Press5.Erasing Speed Memory
The cruise control set speed is erased
from memory if
5is pressed or if the
ignition is turned off.
Weather Conditions Affecting ACC
System operation may be limited
under snow, heavy rain, or road spray
conditions.
Accessory Installations and Vehicle
Modifications
Do not install or place any object
around the front camera windshield
area that would obstruct the front
camera view.
Do not install objects on top of the
vehicle that overhang and obstruct the
front camera, such as a canoe, kayak,
or other items that can be transported
on a roof rack system. See Roof Rack
System 093.
Do not modify the hood, headlamps,
or fog lamps, as this may limit the
camera’s ability to detect an object. Cleaning the Sensing System
The camera sensor on the windshield
behind the rearview mirror can
become blocked by snow, ice, dirt,
mud, or debris. This area needs to be
cleaned for ACC to operate properly.
The vehicle headlamps may need to
be cleaned due to dirt, snow, or ice.
Objects that are not illuminated
correctly may be difficult to detect.
If ACC will not operate, regular cruise
control may be available. See
“Switching Between ACC and Regular
Cruise Control
”previously in this
section. Always consider driving
conditions before using either cruise
control system.
For cleaning instructions, see
“Washing the Vehicle ”under Exterior
Care 0370.
