The roof rack crossrails lock along the straight section
of the side rail.
Press the levers down until the locking mechanisms
fully engage to the side rail. Make sure each lever is
in the down position. The crossrail will not slide
when properly engaged.
To move the crossrail, pull up on the end levers on
each side of the crossrail to the upright position. This will
release the locking mechanism from the siderail. Lift and
place the crossrail into the new position. Press the levers
down until the locking mechanisms fully engage to the
side rail. Make sure each lever is in the down position.
The crossrail will not slide when properly engaged.
Notice: Loading cargo on the luggage carrier that
weighs more than 150 lbs (68 kg) or hangs over the
rear or sides of the vehicle may damage your vehicle.
When loading cargo, tie it to the crossrail and against
the siderail. Lock the crossrails to the far forward and
backward location to make sure the load is evenly
distributed on the luggage carrier.
Do not stand on the plastic lower body panels when
loading cargo on the luggage carrier.
Loading cargo on the luggage carrier will make the
center of vehicle gravity higher. Avoid high speeds,
sudden starts, sharp turns, sudden braking or abrupt
maneuvers. This could result in loss of control of
the vehicle.
Do not exceed the maximum vehicle capacity when
loading your vehicle. For more information on vehicle
capacity and loading, see Loading the Vehicle on
page 4-20.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo as you are driving,
check now and then to make sure the luggage carrier
crossrails are locked and cargo is still securely fastened.
When the luggage carrier is not in use, store the
crossrail inside the vehicle. If not possible, lock one
crossrail at the rear most position on the siderails and
lock the other crossrail above the opening of the rear
door to reduce wind noise.
