ESP INFINITI QX50 2021 User Guide

•Heavy loading of the crossbars has the
potential to affect the vehicle stability
and handling during sudden or unusual
handling maneuvers.
• Properly secure all cargo with ropes or
straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. In a sudden stop or collision, un-
secured cargo could cause personal
injury.
• Drive extra carefully when the vehicle is
loaded at or near the cargo carrying ca-
pacity, especially if the significant por-
tion of that load is carried on the
crossbars.
CAUTION
• Use care when placing or removing items
from the roof rack. If you cannot com-
fortably lift the items onto the roof rack
from the ground, use a ladder or a stool.
Do not apply any load directly to the roof side
rails
OA. CrossbarsOBmust be installed be-
fore applying load/cargo/luggage to the
roof of the vehicle.
INFINITI accessory crossbars may be avail-
able through an INFINITI retailer. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
additional information. The service load capacity for the roof side
rails is 165 lbs. (74 kg.), however do not ex-
ceed the crossbars load capacity.
Be careful that your vehicle does not exceed
the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or
its Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR front
and rear).
For additional information regarding GVWR
and GAWR, refer to:
• F.M.V.S.S. or C.M.V.S.S. certification label
(located on the driver’s door pillar).
Installing crossbars (if so equipped)
WARNING
• It is recommended that you have the roof
rack crossbars installed by an INFINITI
retailer.
• Make sure the moonroof (if so equipped)
is in the closed position during the instal-
lation process.
• Protect the painted area on the vehicle’s
roof under the crossbars by placing a
piece of cloth under the cross bars to pre-
vent scratch damage.
• Do not load the crossbars more than the
rated load capacity and always distrib-
ute the load uniformly. The roof rack crossbars may be installed or
removed. Use an L shaped allen key to install
and remove the crossbars.
