Luggage Carrier
If you have the luggage carrier, you can load things on
top of your vehicle.
The luggage carrier has slats and siderails attached to
the roof and crossrails which can be moved back
and forth to help secure cargo. Tie the load to the
siderails or siderail supports.
Notice:Loading cargo that weighs more than
200 lbs. (91 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. Load your cargo so that it rests on the slats
and does not scratch or damage the vehicle. Put
the cargo against the side rails and fasten it
securely to the luggage carrier. Put the main weight
as far forward as you can.
Don’t exceed the maximum vehicle capacity when
loading your vehicle. For more information on vehicle
capacity and loading, see″Loading Your Vehicle″.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo as you’re leaving,
check now and then to make sure the luggage and
cargo are still securely fastened.Be sure the cargo is properly loaded.If small heavy objects are placed on the roof, place
the load in the area over the rear wheels (behind
the rear side door on Suburban/Yukon XL Models).
If you need to, cut a piece of 3/8 inch plywood to
t inside the crossrails and siderails to spread
the load. If plywood is used, tie it to the siderail
supports.
Tie the load to the crossrails or the siderail supports.
Use the crossrails only to keep the load from sliding.
To move the crossrails, pull out on the latch release
handle at each end. Slide the crossrail to the desired
position balancing the force side to side. Push the
release handle back into the latched position and
slide the crossrail back and forth slightly to be sure
the latch snaps securely into place.
If you need to carry long items, move the crossrails
as far apart as they will go. Tie the load to the
crossrails and the siderails or siderail supports. Also
tie the load to the bumpers. Do not tie the load so
tightly that the crossrails or siderails are damaged.
After moving a crossrail, be sure it is securely locked
into the siderail.
