carried could be violently torn off, and this could
cause a collision, and damage the vehicle. Never
carry something longer or wider than the roof rack
on top of the vehicle unless using a GM Certified
accessory carrier.
For vehicles with a roof rack, the rack can be used toload items. For roof racks that do not have crossrailsincluded, GM Certified crossrails can be purchased asan accessory. See your dealer/retailer for additionalinformation.
For vehicles with crossrails, they can be movedback and forth to help secure cargo.

Notice:Loading cargo on the roof rack that weighsmore than 91 kg (200 lbs) or hangs over the rear orsides of the vehicle may damage the vehicle. Loadcargo so that it rests evenly between the crossrails,making sure to fasten cargo securely.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo when driving,check to make sure crossrails and cargo are securelyfastened. Loading cargo on the roof rack will make thevehicle’s center of gravity higher. Avoid high speeds,sudden starts, sharp turns, sudden braking or abruptmaneuvers, otherwise it may result in loss of control.If driving for a long distance, on rough roads, or at highspeeds, occasionally stop the vehicle to make sure thecargo remains in its place.

.Tie the load to the crossrails or the siderailsupports. Use the crossrails only to keep theload from sliding. To move the crossrails, pull outon the latch release handle at each end. Slide thecrossrail to the desired position balancing the forceside to side. Push the release handle back into thelatched position and slide the crossrail back andforth slightly to be sure the latch snaps securelyinto place.
.If needed to carry long items, move the crossrailsas far apart as they will go. Tie the load to thecrossrails and the siderails or siderail supports.Also tie the load to the bumpers. Do not tie theload so tightly that the crossrails or siderailsare damaged.
.After moving a crossrail, be sure it is securelylocked into the siderail.
