Luggage Carrier
{ CAUTION:
If you try to carry something on top of your
vehicle that is longer or wider than the luggage
carrier like paneling, plywood, a mattress
and so forth the wind can catch it as you
drive along. This can cause you to lose
control. What you are carrying could be
violently torn off, and this could cause you or
other drivers to have a collision, and of course
damage your vehicle. You may be able to carry
something like this inside. But, never carry
something longer or wider than the luggage
carrier on top of your vehicle.
If you have the luggage carrier, you can load things on
top of your vehicle. Crossrails are not standard on
this vehicle and must be purchased at your
dealer/retailer.
Notice: Loading cargo on the luggage carrier that
weighs more than 200 lbs (91 kg) or hangs over
the rear or sides of the vehicle may damage your
vehicle. Load cargo so that it rests as far forward as
possible and against the side rails, making sure
to fasten it securely.
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 4-22.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo as you are driving,
check to make sure the cargo is still securely fastened.
Rear Seat Armrest
Your vehicle may have a rear seat armrest that contains
two cupholders. To access the cupholders, pull the
armrest down from the rear seatback.
Convenience Net
The vehicle may have a convenience net in the rear.
Store small loads as far forward as possible. The
net should not be used to store heavy loads.
