Handle Grip
The handle grip is located on the passenger side of the
instrument panel. The handle can be used to enter or exit
the vehicle or when traveling on rough terrain.
ROOF LUGGAGE RACK — IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Roof Luggage Rack
for transporting accessories.
Crossbars should always be used whenever cargo is placed
on the Roof Luggage Rack. Check the straps frequently to
be sure that the load remains securely attached.
NOTE:Crossbars can be purchased at a authorized dealer
through Mopar parts. External racks do not increase the
total load carrying capacity of the vehicle. Be sure that the
total occupant and luggage load inside the vehicle, plus the
load on the Roof Luggage Rack, do not exceed the maxi-
mum vehicle load capacity.
The load carried on the roof, when equipped with a
luggage rack, must not exceed 150 lbs (68 kg), and it should
be uniformly distributed over the cargo area.
Do not use the retractable roof when using the crossbars.
