sure to align the lines in the side rails with the
arrows on the crossrail supports.3. Tighten the lock knobs and then try to move the
crossrails back and forth to be sure that they do
not move.
4. Once you load the cargo onto the crossrails, secure
it by tying it down to the crossrail support cargo
tie-down loops. Do not load cargo directly on

Stop Tabs
If your vehicle has a sunroof, it will have a crossrail
stop tab placed in the siderail in the spot labeled
SUN—ROOF STOP. This tab prevents you from moving
the crossrails past the opening of the sunroof and
loading cargo too far forward.
Your vehicle will also have a stop tab in the crossrail in
the spot labeled ON STAR STOP. This tab prevents
loading cargo too close to the OnStar antenna which will
cause the OnStar and navigation system (if equipped)
to function improperly or not at all.Vehicles with the off-road lamps will have additional
stop tabs placed in the siderails to prevent you
from moving the lamps too far rearward, causing them
to shine into the optional sunroof opening.
Crossrail Channels
Notice:If you drive your vehicle through an
automatic car wash that does not have enough
clearance for any roof-mounted accessories (such
as off-road lamps or a roof basket) on your vehicle,
you can damage your vehicle. To avoid damaging
your vehicle in a car wash, remove any
roof-mounted accessories if you can, and do not
use an automatic car wash while roof-mounted
accessories are on your vehicle. SeeWashing Your
Vehicle on page 5-96for more information.
The crossrails have built in channels to allow you to
attach other items designed for this system, such
as basket luggage carriers, bike racks, ski racks, etc.
