LUGGAGE RACK
Your vehicle is equipped with a roof rack for transporting items on the
exterior of the vehicle.
The maximum recommended load is
100 lb (45 kg), evenly distributed.
Use the tie down loops on the
thumbwheels (if equipped) to
secure the load.
To adjust cross-bar position (if
equipped):
1. Loosen the thumbwheel at both
ends of the cross-bar (If the
thumbwheel is too tight to release
by hand, a small screwdriver or
similar device can be used to release
the torque by inserting the shaft
into the tie-down loop and twisting
the thumbwheel counterclockwise).
Both cross-bars are adjustable.
2. Slide the cross-bar to the desired location.
3. Tighten the thumbwheel at both ends of the cross-bar.
Be sure to check that the thumbwheels are tight each time load is added
or removed from the roof rack, and periodically while traveling. Always
ensure that the load is secure before traveling.
Note:When the cross-bars are not in use, they can either be removed or
adjusted so that the rear crossbar is fully rearward, and the front
crossbar is 10 inches from the front end-cap for optimum wind noise.
