The following specification is themaximum weight that can be
loaded onto the roof rack.
Distribute the load as evenly as
possible across the crossbars (if
equipped) and roof rack and
secure the load firmly.
Loading cargo or luggage in
excess of the specified weight limit
on the roof rack may damage your
vehicle.
The vehicle center of gravity will be higher when items are loaded onto
the roof rack. Avoid sudden starts,
braking, sharp turns, abrupt
maneuvers or high speeds that
may result in loss of vehicle control
or rollover resulting in an accident. Always drive slowly and turn cor-
ners carefully when carrying items
on the roof rack. Severe wind
updrafts, caused by passing vehi-
cles or natural causes, can cause
sudden upward pressure on items
loaded on the roof rack. This is
especially true when carrying
large, flat items such as wood pan-
els 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 while driving, check frequently
before or while driving to make
sure the items on the roof rack are
securely fastened.Mounting bracket for roof carrier
(if equipped)
To install or remove a roof carrier,
you can use the mounting bracket
and cover on the roof.
When you install a roof carrier, do
the following procedure.
1. Insert a slim tool (coin or flat blade driver) into the slot and slide the
cover toward the arrow on the
cover.
