Roof Luggage Rack
Convertible Top Vehicles
CAUTION!
To prevent damage to the convertible top, DO NOT
carry any loads on the convertible top.
Coupe Vehicles
External racks do not increase the total load carrying
capacity of the vehicle. Be sure that the total occupant
and luggage load inside the vehicle, plus the load on the
roof luggage rack, do not exceed the rated vehicle capac-
ity. The maximum recommended roof load for your
vehicle is 110 lbs (50 kg).
CAUTION!
• To prevent damage to the roof of your vehicle, DO NOT
carry any loads on the roof luggage rack which may come
in contact with the roof panel. The load should be secured
and placed on top of the rack, not directly on the roof. If it
is necessary to place some part of the load on the roof,
place a blanket or some other protection between the load
and the roof surface.
• To avoid damage to the roof luggage rack and vehicle, do
not exceed the rated load capacity of your roof luggage
rack system maximum load capacity. Always distribute
heavy loads as evenly as possible and secure the load
appropriately.
• Long loads which extend over the windshield, such as
wood panels or surfboards, should be carefully secured to
both the front and rear of the vehicle.
• Travel at reduced speeds and turn corners carefully when
carrying large or heavy loads on the roof luggage rack.
Wind forces, due to natural causes or nearby truck traffic,
can add sudden upward loads. This is especially true on
large flat loads and may result in damage to the cargo or
your vehicle.
