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.
A luggage carrier allows you to load things on top
of your vehicle. The luggage carrier has side
rails attached to the roof, sliding crossrails, if
equipped, and places to use for tying things down.These let you load some things on top of your
vehicle, as long as they are not wider or longer
than the luggage carrier.
The roof rack crossrails can be locked in
four positions only.
138

Press the lever down and align the crossrails
on both sides with the holes on the siderails.
Move the crossrail by hand. There will be a
notable click as the pins align into the holes
locking the crossrail into place.
Make sure lever is in the down position, and
that you are not able to slide the crossrail with
your hand when properly in place.To reposition the crossrail, pull up on the end
levers of the crossrail to the upright position.
This will release the pins from the holes in the
siderail. You will be able to move the crossrail
into a new position.
139

Notice:Loading cargo on the luggage carrier
that weighs more than 220 lbs (100 kg) or
hangs over the rear or sides of the vehicle may
damage your vehicle. Load cargo so that it
rests on the slats as far forward as possible
and against the side rails, making sure to
fasten it securely.
Do not stand on plastic lower body panel when
loading cargo on the luggage carrier.
Do not exceed the maximum vehicle capacity
when loading your vehicle. For more information
on vehicle capacity and loading, seeLoading Your
Vehicle on page 315.
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, 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.Rear Compartment Storage
