7.3 lbs. (3.3 kg) to a single coat hook.
ROOF RACK (if so equipped)
Do not apply any load directly to the roof side

plying load/cargo/luggage to the roof of the
vehicle. Genuine NISSAN accessory cross
bars are available through an INFINITI re-
tailer. It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for additional information.
The service load capacity for the roof side
rails is 165 lbs. (74 kg), however do not ex-
ceed the accessory cross bars load capacity.
Be careful that your vehicle does not exceed
the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or
its Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR frontand rear). The GVWR and GAWR are located
on the F.M.V.S.S. or C.V.M.S.S. certification
label (located on the driver’s door pillar). For
additional information regarding GVWR and
GAWR, refer to “Vehicle loading information”
in the “Technical and consumer information”
section of this manual.
WARNING
∙ Always install the cross bars onto the
roof side rails before loading cargo of any
kind. Loading cargo directly onto the
roof side rails or the vehicle’s roof may
cause vehicle damage.
∙ Drive extra carefully when the vehicle is loaded at or near the cargo carrying ca-
pacity, especially if the significant por-
tion of that load is carried on the cross
bars.
∙ Heavy loading of the cross bars has the potential to affect the vehicle stability
and handling during sudden or unusual
handling maneuvers.
∙ Roof rack cross bars should be evenly distributed.
∙ Do not exceed maximum roof rack cross bars load capacity.
