REARVIEW CAMERA
WARNING - Backing &
using camera
Never rely solely on the rear view
camera when backing. You must
always use methods of viewing
the area behind you including
looking over both shoulders as
well as continuously checking all
three rear view mirrors. Due to
the difficulty of ensuring that the
area behind you remains clear,
always back slowly and stop
immediately if you even suspect
that a person, and especially a
child, might be behind you.

The following specification is the
maximum weight that can be loaded
onto the roof rack. Distribute the
load as evenly as possible across
the crossbars (if equipped) and roof
rack and secure the load firmly.
Loading cargo or luggage in excess
of the specified weight limit on the
roof rack may damage your vehicle.
The vehicle center of gravity will be higher when items are loaded onto
the roof rack. Avoid sudden starts,
braking, sharp turns, abrupt maneu-
vers or high speeds that may result
in loss of vehicle control or rollover
resulting in an accident. Always drive slowly and turn corners
carefully when carrying items on the
roof rack. Severe wind updrafts,
caused by passing vehicles or natu-
ral causes, can cause sudden
upward pressure on items loaded on
the roof rack. This is especially true
when carrying large, flat items such
as wood panels or mattresses. This
could cause the items to fall off the
roof rack and cause damage to your
vehicle or others around you.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo while driving, check frequently
before or while driving to make sure
the items on the roof rack are
securely fastened.
