For additional information, if needed, refer to “Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit” on page 6-8.DO NOT USE the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating and Gross Axle Weight Rating num- bers listed on the safety certification label (A)located on the inside sill of the driver’s door as the guide for passengers and/or cargo weight.

WA R N I N G To reduce the risk of serious injury or death, the combined weights of the driver, passengers and cargo and must neverexceed the vehicle capacity weight. Exceeding the vehicle capacity weight will adversely affect vehicle performance, including handling and braking, and may cause an accident.
Do not load cargo or luggage higher than the top of the seatback. Be sure that your cargo or luggage cannot move when your vehicle is in motion. Having either the rear view blocked, oryour cargo being thrown inside the cabin if you suddenly have to brake can cause a serious accident or injury or death. Put cargo or luggage in the cargo area of your vehicle. Try to spread the weightevenly.
Loading cargo on the roof
WA R N I N G Weight placed on the roof of the vehicle will raise the vehicle’s center of gravity and adversely affect its handling charac- teristics. As a result, driving errors oremergency maneuvers could lead to a loss of control and result in an accident. Drive slowly and avoid excessive maneuverssuch as sudden braking or quick turning. Make sure that the weight of luggage and the roof carrier do not exceed the maxi- mum roof load, 176 lb (80 kg). If the maxi-mum roof load is exceeded, this could cause damage to the vehicle or result in an accident.WA R N I N G
The total weight of all occupants and lug- gage, including your roof load, must not exceed the vehicle capacity weight. For more information, refer to “Tire and load- ing information placard” on page 11-2 Roof load is determined by adding the weight of the roof carrier and the weightof the luggage placed on the roof carrier. For additional information, refer to “Maximum roof load” on page 11-3.CAUTION Do not load luggage directly onto the roof. Use a roof carrier th
at properly fits your
vehicle.For installation, refer to the instruction man- ual provided with the roof carrier. Place the luggage on the carrier so that its weight is distributed evenly with the heaviest items on the bottom. Do not load items thatare wider than the roof carrier. When attaching/removing the roof carrier and loading/removing luggage, do not apply excessive pressure on a single point. Depending on how and where the force is applied, this may cause dents on the vehicle roof.WA R N I N G

Before driving and after traveling a short dis- tance, always check the load to make sure it is securely fastened to the roof carrier. Stop the vehicle periodically and check that the load remains secure. If the load is notsecure, it could fall from the vehicle and damage your vehicle, another vehicle or cre- ate a road hazard.NOTE
To prevent wind noise or reduction in gas mileage, remove the roof carrier when not in use. Before using an automatic car wash, check with the attendant to determine if the roof carrier should be removed. Be sure that adequate clearance is main- tained for raising the liftgate when installinga roof carrier.

Industrial pollution, road tar, bird droppings, tree sap, insect remains, sea water and otherforeign matters can damage the finish on your vehicle. Generally, the longer any foreign materialstays on the finish, the worse the damage. Wash your vehicle as soon as possible when- ever the finish gets soiled.
N00945901682
Chemicals contained in the dirt and dust picked up from air, rain, snow, or road sur- faces can damage the paint and body of yourvehicle if left on. Frequent washing and waxing is the best way to protect your vehicle from this damage.Do not wash the vehicle in direct sunlight. Park the vehicle in the shade and spray it with water to remove dust. Next, using plenty ofclean water and a car washing mitt or sponge, wash the vehicle from top to bottom. Use a mild car washing soap if necessary.Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with a cham- ois or soft cloth. After washing the vehicle, carefully clean the joints and flanges of thedoors, hood, etc., where dirt is likely to remain.
Salt and other chemicals spread on winter roads in some geographical areas can have adetrimental effect on the vehicle underbody. You should flush the underbody with a high pressure hose every time you wash the out-side of your vehicle. Take special care to remove mud or other debris which could trap and hold salt andmoisture. After washing your vehicle, wipe off all waterdrops from the rubber parts around thedoors to prevent the doors from freezing.
Foreign material Wa s h i n g
CAUTION When washing the underside of your vehicle or the wheels, wear a pair of gloves to pro- tect your hands. If your vehicle has rain sensor wipers, place the wiper switch lever in the “OFF” position to deactivate the rain sensor before washing the vehicle. Otherwise, the wipers will oper-ate in the presence of water spray on the windshield and may get damaged as a result. Never spray or splash water on the electrical parts in the engine compartment. This may damage them. Be careful also when washingthe underbody to ensure that water does not enter the engine compartment. Avoid automatic car washers that use rotat- ing brushes. These brushes may scratch the paint surface and make it dull.Scratches are more noticeable on darker col- ored vehicles. Some hot water washing equipment uses high pressure and heat to clean your vehicle. Because hot water can damage plastics partsand seep inside your vehicle, make sure you do the following when using such equip- ment:• Keep the washing nozzle at least 28 inches(70 cm) away from the vehicle body.• When washing around the door glass, holdthe nozzle at a distance of more than 28 inches (70 cm) and at a right angle to the glass surface.
Make sure to do the following when using an automatic car wash, with help from either this manual or the car wash operator, to avoid damaging your vehicle:• Fold the outside rearview mirrors.• Tape the wiper arm assembly.• If your vehicle is equipped with a rear spoiler or roof rails, check with the carwash operator before using the car wash.• If your vehicle is equipped with the rainsensor wipers, place the wiper switch lever in the “OFF” position to deactivate the rain sensor.
