Do not apply any load directly to the roof side
rails. Cross bars (if so equipped) must be
installed before applying load/cargo/luggage
to the roof of the vehicle.
Be careful that your vehicle does not exceed the
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or its Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR front and rear). The
GVWR and GAWR are located on the F.M.V.S.S.
or C.V. M.S.S. certification label (located on the
driver’s door pillar). For additional information,
refer toVehicle loading informationin the10.
Technical informationsection.
WARNING

loaded at or near the cargo carrying capac-
ity, especially if the significant portion of
that load is carried on the roof rack.
•Heavy loading of the roof rack has the po-
tential to affect the vehicle stability and
handling during sudden or unusual han-
dling maneuvers.
•Roof rack load should be evenly distrib-
uted.
