mounting lo cation s
The roof ra ck system must be in stalled exact ly a ccording to the
instructions provided .
Mount the front and rear cross bars between the punched markings
on the inside of the roof rail ings => fig. 124 -arrows -.
0 Note
• The conventiona l roof rack design i llustrated above will not fit on
vehicles withou t roof rai ls . For safe mounti ng, t hese require a
different design of roof rack .•
Loading the roof rack
Alw ays distri bute the loads evenly . Make sure anything on
the roof r ock is tied down securely.
Always distribute the loads on the roof rack evenly .
Controls and equip­
ment
Always secure items to the roo f rack.
The maximum perm issible roof weight is 16 5 lb (75 kg ). The roof
weight is made up of the weight of the roof rack system and the
weight of the object being transported :=:>
page 341.
When using a roof rack system which has a lower load carrying capacity, you must not use the tota l maximum permissible load
carrying capacity. If this is the case, you may load the roof rack
system only to the maximum capacity specified by the manufac ­
turer of the roof rack system .
& WARNING
Weak, damaged or imp rope r strap s used to sec ure items to the
roof rack can fail during hard braking or in a collision and c aus e
se rious per son al injury .
• Alway s use suitabl e mounting strap s and properly secure
it em s to the prop erly in sta lled roof ra ck to help pre vent item s from
shifting or flying forward .
• Items on the r oof rack must al ways be securely mou nted.
• The use of a roof r ack can n egatively affect the w ay a vehi cle
h and les. C arg o th at is large , he avy, bulky , long or flat will have a
g reater negativ e influence on the vehicle' s aerodynamic s, ce nter
of grav ity and overall h andling . Alway s drive slo wly, a vo id sudden
braking and m aneuver s when t ran sp orting cargo on the roof of
your vehicle .
• Never exc eed the maximum permi ssible load carrying capa city
of the roof of your vehi cle, the p ermissibl e axle weights and the
perm issible tot al weight of your vehicle :=:>

• Alway s drive s lowly, avoid sudden br ak ing and m aneuvers
when tran sporting cargo on the roof of your vehicle .

&, WARNING (continued)
crashes and serious personal injuries . Have worn or damaged tires
replaced immediately.
• Tires age even if they are not being used and can fail suddenly,
especially at high speeds. Tires that are more than 6 years old can
only be used in an emergency and then with special care and at
low speed.
Glossary of tire and loading terminology
Accessory weight
means the combined weight (in excess of those standard items
which may be replaced) of automatic transmission, power steering,
power brakes, power windows, power seats, radio, and heater, to
the extent that these items are available as factory-installed equip­
ment (whether installed or not).
Aspect ratio means the ratio of the height to the width of the tire in percent.
Numb ers of 55 or lower indicate a low sidewall for improved
steering response and better overall handling on dry pavement.
Bead means the part of the tire that is made of steel wires, wrapped or
reinforced by ply cords and that is shaped to fit the rim.
Bead separation
means a breakdown of the bond between components in the bead.
Cord
means the strands forming the plies in the tire.
&, WARNING (continued)
• Never mount used tires on your vehicle if you are not sure of
their "previous history." Old used tires may have been damaged
even though the damage cannot be seen that can lead to sudden
tire failure and loss of vehicle control.
• If you notice unusual vibration or if the vehicle pulls to one side
when driving, always stop as soon as it is safe to do so and check
the wheels and tires for damage.
•
Cold tire inflation pressure
means the tire pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer
for a tire of a designated size that has not been driven for more than
a couple of miles (kilometers) at low speeds in the three hour period
before the tire pressure is measured or adjusted .
Curb weight
means the weight of a motor vehicle with standard equipment
including the maximum capacity of fuel, oil, and coolant, air condi­
tioning and additional weight of optional equipment.
Extra load tire
means a tire designed to operate at higher loads and at higher infla ­
tion pressures then the corresponding standard tire. Extra load tires
my be identified as "XL", "xi", "EXTRA LOAD", or
"RF" on the side ­
wall.
Gross Axle Weight Rating ("GAWR")
means the load-carrying capacity of a single axle system, measured
at the tire-ground interfaces .
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating ("GVWR")
means the maximum total loaded weight of the vehicle.

Lifting the vehicle
Important safety precautions
Be aware of the following hazards before l ift ing the vehic le w ith a
w ork sho p ho is t or f lo or jack :
• The vehicle should never be lifted or jacked up from underneath
the engine oil pan, the transmission housing , the front or rear axle
or the body side members . This could lead to serious damage.
• Use lifting equipment with padded contact surfaces to avoid
damage to the underbody or chassis frame.
• Alternatively, cover the contact surfaces on workshop hoist or
floor ja ck with rubber pads before lifting.
• Before driving over a workshop hoist , check that the vehicle
weight does not exceed the permissible lifting capacity of the hoist. •
Before driving over a workshop hoist , ensure that there is suffi ­
cient clearance between the hoist and low parts of the vehicle .
& WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury and vehicle damage:
• Always lift the vehicle only at the special workshop hoist and
floor jack lift points illustrated
=> fig . 239 and => fig . 240 .
• Failure to lift the vehicle at these points could cause the vehicle
to tilt or fall from a lift if there is a change in vehicle weight distri­
bution and balance . This might happen, for example, when heavy
components such as the engine block or transmission are
removed .
• When removing such heavy components, anchor vehicle to
hoist or add corresponding weights to maintain the center of
gravity . Otherwise , the vehicle might tilt or slip off the hoist ,
causing serious personal injury .

whic h inc ludes passenger weight ( 150 lbs/68 kg per designated
seating position) and luggage weight.

app lied at each axle of the
veh ic le =:> & .

• The actual Gr oss Axle Weight R atin g at the front and re ar ax les
s hould not ex ceed the permi ssible w eight s, and th eir combination
mu st not e xceed the Gr oss Vehicle Weight R atin g.
• Exceeding pe rmi ssible weight ratin gs can re sult in vehicle

0 Note
• The vehicle capacity weight figures apply when the load is
distr ibuted even ly in t he ve hicle (passengers and l uggage). When
transporting a heavy load in the luggage compartment, carry the
load as near to the rear axle as possib le so that the vehic le's
handling is not impaired .
• Do not exceed the maxim um permissib le axle loads or the
maximum gross vehic le weight. Always remember that the vehic le's
handling wi ll be affected by the extra load . Therefore, adjust your
speed according ly.
• Always observe local reg ulations. •
