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
