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 shifting. 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 lift the items onto
the roof rack from the ground, use a
ladder or a stool.

The service load capacity for the roof side
rails is 165 lbs. (74 kg.), however do not ex-
ceed the crossbars load capacity.
