load cargo on top of your vehicle.
We recommend to obtain the cross- bars and fixing components needed
to install the roof rack on your vehicle
from an authorised Kia dealer.

 The crossbars (if equipped) should be placed in the proper load carry-
ing positions prior to placing items
onto the roof rack.
 If the vehicle is equipped with a sunroof, be sure not to position
cargo onto the roof rack in such a

may need to be repositioned if wind

Always drive slowly and turn
corners carefully when carry-
ing items on the roof rack.
Severe wind updrafts, caused
by passing vehicles or natural
causes, can cause sudden
upward pressure on items
loaded on the roof rack. This
is especially true when carry-
ing large, flat items such as
wood panels or mattresses.This could cause the items to
fall off the roof rack and cause
damage to your vehicle or
others around you.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo whilst driving, check
frequently before or whilstdriving to make sure the items
on the roof rack are securelyfastened.
