LUGGAGE HOOKS
When securing items using luggage hooks
located on the back of the seat or side
finisher do not apply a load over more than
6.5 lbs. (29 N) to a single hook.
The luggage hooks that are located on the
floor should have loads less than 110 lbs.
(490 N) to a single hook.
The luggage hooks can be used to secure
cargo with ropes or other types of straps.
WARNING
• Properly secure all cargo with ropes
or straps to help prevent it from slid-
ing or shif ting. Do not place cargo
higher than the seatbacks. In a sud-
den stop or collision, unsecured
cargo could cause personal injury.
• Use suitable ropes and hooks to se-
cure cargo.
• Never allow anyone to ride in the lug-
gage area. It is extremely dangerous
to ride in a cargo area inside of a ve-
hicle. In a collision, people riding in
these areas are more likely to be se-
riously injured or killed.
• Do not allow people to ride in any
area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat belts.
• The child restraint top tether strap
may be damaged by contact with
items in the cargo area. Secure any
items in the cargo area. Your child
could be seriously injured or killed in
a collision if the top tether strap is
damaged.
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in
a seat and using a seat belt properly.
COAT HOOKS
The coat hooks, located on the rear assist
grips, may be used to store coats and other
articles of clothing.

ROOF RACK (if so equipped)
WARNING
• Always install the crossbars onto the
roof side rails before loading cargo of
any kind. Loading cargo directly onto
the roof side rails or the vehicle’s roof
may cause vehicle damage.
• Roof rack cross bars should be evenly
distributed.
• Do not exceed maximum roof rack
crossbars load capacity and always
distribute the load uniformly. •
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 slid-
ing or shif ting. In a sudden stop or
collision, unsecured cargo could
cause personal injury.
• Drive extra carefully when the vehicle
is loaded at or near the cargo carry-
ing capacity, especially if the signifi-
cant portion of that load is carried on
the crossbars.CAUTION
• Use care when placing or removing
items from the roof rack. If you can-
not comfortably lif t 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
before applying load/cargo/luggage to the
roof of the vehicle.
Genuine NISSAN accessory crossbars may
be available through a NISSAN dealer. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer 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 ex-
ceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) or its Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR front and rear).

cle’s roof under the crossbars by plac-
ing a piece of cloth under the cross

the assistance of others or pets unat-
tended in your vehicle. Additionally,

hicle on a warm day can quickly be-
come high enough to cause a signifi-
cant risk of injury or death to people
