2-52 Luggage Carrier
CAUTION:
If you try to carry something on top of your
vehicle that is longer or wider than the luggage
carrier
-- like paneling, plywood, a mattress,
and so forth
-- the wind can catch it as you
drive along. This can cause you to lose control.
What you are carrying could be violently torn
off, and this could cause you or other drivers
to have a collision, and of course damage your
vehicle. You may be able to carry something like
this inside. But, never carry something longer
or wider than the luggage carrier on top of
your vehicle.
A luggage carrier allows you to load things on top of
your vehicle. The luggage carrier has slats and side rails
attached to the roof, sliding crossrails and places to use
for tying things down. These let you load some other
things on top of your vehicle, as long as they are not
wider or longer than the luggage carrier.To slide the crossrails to where you want them, pull up on
the lever on each side of the crossrail. This will release
the crossrail and allow you to slide it. When the crossrail
is where you want it, push down on the lever to lock it
into place.
NOTICE:
Loading cargo that weighs more than 220 lbs. (100 kg)
on the luggage carrier may damage your vehicle.
When you carry cargo on the luggage carrier
of a proper size and weight, put it on the slats,
and distribute the weight evenly. Then slide the
crossrail up against the rear of the load, to help
keep it from moving. You can then tie it down.
Cargo containers must be loaded on the
crossrails only.
Don't exceed the maximum vehicle capacity when loading
your vehicle. For more information on vehicle capacity and
loading, see ªLoading Your Vehicleº in the Index.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo as you're driving,
check now and then to make sure the luggage carrier is
locked and cargo is still securely fastened.

To remove the front ashtray, pull the bin out of the
console cupholder.
To use the lighter, press it in all the way, and let go.
When it's ready, it will pop back out by itself.
NOTICE:
Don't hold a cigarette lighter in with your hand
while it is heating. If you do, it won't be able to
back away from the heating element when it's
ready. That can make it overload, damaging the
lighter and the heating element.

You can also move the visor from side
-to-side.
Illuminated Visor Vanity Mirror

such as an air mattress.

in the rear compartment
on the passenger's side
of the vehicle behind an
access cover.

adapter to the end of the hose if required. Then attach
that end of the hose to the object you wish to inflate.
Attach the other end of the hose to the outlet.
Press and release the switch to turn the air inflator on.
The indicator light will remain on when the inflator
is running.
The system has an internal clock to prevent overheating.
The system will allow about five minutes of running
time, then the compressor will stop. The indicator light
will then begin to flash. When the indicator is off, the
inflator can be started again by pressing the switch.
If the compressor is still hot, it may only run for a
short time before shutting off again.
