The luggage carrier has side rails and crossrails attached
to the roof to secure cargo. To install the crossrails,

3. Mount the crossrails onto the side rails and adjust
their position so the cargo can be mounted properly.
Make sure the crossrails are not slanted.4. Tighten the screws securely, taking care not
to overtighten them. Then raise and lock the
screw covers.

2-51
Be sure the cargo is properly loaded. Follow
these guidelines:

Carrying small, heavy loads on the roof is
not recommended.

Do not load cargo directly on the roof panel.

If you need to carry long items, move the crossrails
as far apart as possible. Tie the load to the tie downs
provided. Also tie the load to the bumpers. Do not
tie the load so tightly that the crossrails or side rails
are damaged.
NOTICE:
Loading cargo that weighs more than 100 lbs.
(45 kg) on the luggage carrier may damage
your vehicle. When you carry large things,
never let them hang over the rear or the sides
of your vehicle.
Put the cargo against the side rails and fasten
it securely to the luggage carrier. Put the main
weight as far forward as possible to keep the
load from shifting.
Don't exceed the maximum vehicle capacity when
loading your vehicle. For more information on vehicle
capacity and loading, see ªLoading Your Vehicleº
in the Index.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo as you're driving,
check now and then to make sure the luggage carrier
and cargo are still securely fastened.
To reduce unnecessary windnoise generated by air flow
over the crossrails, remove them from the vehicle when
not in use. The original shipping carton may be retained
for storage of the roof rack cross rails.
To remove your crossrails, do the following:
1. Insert the crossrail cover key and turn the screw
cover lock to the unlocked position and lower the
cover (all four covers).
2. Turn the screw counterclockwise to loosen the
mounting attachment so that it can fit over the
side rails (all four mounting attachments).
3. Remove the crossrails and store them in the box.

This light should come on when you turn the ignition
key to START. If it doesn't come on then, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn you if there's a problem.
If the light comes on while you are driving, pull off the
road and stop carefully. You may notice that the pedal is
harder to push. Or, the pedal may go closer to the floor.
It may take longer to stop. If the light is still on, have
the vehicle towed for service. See ªAnti
-Lock Brake
System Warning Lightº and ªTowing Your Vehicleº
in the Index.
CAUTION:
Your brake system may not be working properly
if the brake system warning light is on. Driving
with the brake system warning light on can lead
to an accident. If the light is still on after you've
pulled off the road and stopped carefully, have
the vehicle towed for service.

2-70 Anti-Lock Brake System Warning
Light (Option)
With the anti-lock brake
system, this light will
come on when you start
your engine and it will
stay on for three seconds.
That's normal.
If the light comes on when you're driving, you don't
have anti
-lock brakes and there could be a problem with
your regular brakes. Pull off the road and stop carefully.
You may notice that the pedal is harder to push. Or, the
pedal may go closer to the floor. It may take longer to
stop. Have the vehicle towed for service. See ªTowing
Your Vehicleº in the Index.
CAUTION:
Your regular brake system may not be working
properly if the anti
-lock brake system warning
light is on. Driving with the anti
-lock brake
system warning light on can lead to an accident.
After you've pulled off the road and stopped
carefully, have the vehicle towed for service.
If the anti-lock brake system warning light stays on
longer than normal after you've started your engine,
turn the ignition off. Or, if the light comes on and stays
on when you're driving, stop as soon as possible and
turn the ignition off. Then start the engine again to reset
the system. If the light still stays on, or comes on again
while you're driving, your vehicle needs service. If the
light is on and the regular brake system warning light
isn't on, you still have brakes, but you don't have
anti
-lock brakes.
The anti
-lock brake system warning light should come
on briefly when you turn the ignition key to ON. If the
light doesn't come on then, have it fixed so it will be
ready to warn you if there is a problem.

Ventilation Tips
Keep the hood and front air inlet free of ice, snow or
any other obstruction (such as leaves). The heater and
defroster will work far better, reducing the chance of
fogging the inside of your windows.
When you enter a vehicle in cold weather, move the fan
control lever toward the fan symbol for a few moments
before driving off. This helps clear the intake ducts of
snow and moisture, and reduces the chance of fogging
the inside of your windows.
Keep the air path under the front seats clear of objects.
This helps air to circulate throughout your vehicle.
Audio Systems
Your audio system has been designed to operate easily

most out of the advanced engineering that went into it.
