WARNING!
Cargo must be securely tied down before
driving your vehicle. Improperly secured
loads can fly off the vehicle, particularly at
high speeds, resulting in personal injury or
property damage. Follow the roof rack cau-
tions when carrying cargo on your roof
rack.
CAUTION!
• To prevent damage to the roof of your
vehicle, do not carry any loads on the
roof rack without the crossbars installed.
The load should be secured and placed
on top of the crossbars, not directly on
the roof. If it is necessary to place the
CAUTION!
load on the roof, place a blanket or some
other protection between the load and
the roof surface.
• To avoid damage to the roof rack and
vehicle, do not exceed the maximum
roof rack load capacity of 150 lb
(68 kg). Always distribute heavy loads as
evenly as possible and secure the load
appropriately.
• Long loads which extend over the wind-
shield, such as wood panels or surf-
boards, or loads with large frontal area
should be secured to both the front and
rear of the vehicle.
• Place a blanket or other protection be-
tween the surface of the roof and the
load.
CAUTION!
• Travel at reduced speeds and turn cor-
ners carefully when carrying large or
heavy loads on the roof rack. Wind
forces, due to natural causes or nearby
truck traffic, can add sudden upward lift
to a load. This is especially true on large
flat loads and may result in damage to
the cargo or your vehicle.
• The use of Sport Mode is not recom-
mended when using the Roof Luggage
Rack to carry a load.
