ROOF LUGGAGE RACK IF EQUIPPED
The crossbars and siderails are designed to carry the
weight on vehicles equipped with a luggage rack. The
load must not exceed 150 lbs (68 kg), and should be
uniformly distributed over both luggage rack crossbars.
Distribute cargo weight evenly on the roof rack crossbars.
The roof rack does not increase the total load carrying
capacity of the vehicle. Be sure the total load of cargo
inside the vehicle plus that on the external rack does
not exceed the maximum vehicle load capacity. Refer to
the Tire and Loading information placard for more
information about cargo and load capacity. The placard is
located either on the drivers side Bpillar or the driver
door.
Flip the lever up to attach or adjust the crossbars. Then
turn lever counter-clockwise to loosen lower clamp.
Twist clamp towards center of crossbar when lower
clamp is loose. Pick up crossbar and move to desired
location. Return lower clamp towards the outside of
vehicle and turn upper clockwise to re-tighten clamp to
siderail. Flip lever down when tight. Do not place
crossbar directly over the sunroof glass (if equipped).
Attempt to move the crossbar again to ensure that it has
properly locked into position.
NOTE:
To reduce the amount of wind noise when the
crossbars are not in use, remove both crossbars from the
siderails and place inside the vehicle.
