This information replaces the
information under“Roof Rack
System” found in the Storage
Section of the owner ’s manual.
The vehicle is equipped with
side-rails for a roof rack system.
Cargo must be secured with
properly installed cross rails and
other accessories designed to carry
cargo. These can be purchased
from your dealer.
{Warning
Before driving and occasionally
during a trip, check that cargo is
securely fastened, rests evenly
between the cross rails and does
not block the vehicle's lamps or (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
windows. Never load cargo
directly on the roof of the vehicle
or allow cargo to hang over the
rear or sides of the vehicle. Never
load cargo without first properly
installing cross rails and other
accessories designed to carry
cargo. Personal injury, death or
damage to the vehicle or other
property may occur.
If driving for a long distance, on
rough roads, or at high speeds,
occasionally stop the vehicle to
make sure the cargo remains in its
place.
Cargo Weight Limits
Do not exceed the maximum cargo
weight for the roof rack system,
including the weight of the cross
rails and any other accessories
used to carry the cargo such as bike
racks or roof boxes.
For all trim levels except Denali, the
maximum cargo weight that can be
loaded onto the roof rack system is
100 kg (220 lb).
For Denali, the maximum weight is
as follows:
Front-Wheel Drive
.With Sunroof: 40 kg (88 lb)
. Without Sunroof: 65 kg (143 lb)

All-Wheel Drive
.With Sunroof: 25 kg (55 lb)
. Without Sunroof: 50 kg (110 lb)
{Warning
Never load the roof rack with
more weight than specified in this
section or in the instructions that
came with cross rails and other
roof rack accessories, whichever
is less. Loading cargo on the roof
rack will make the vehicle's center
of gravity higher. To avoid losing
control of the vehicle, avoid high
speeds, sudden starts, sharp
turns, sudden braking, or abrupt
maneuvers when carrying cargo
on the roof rack. The weight of any cargo carried on
the roof rack system must be
included in calculating the loaded
weight of the vehicle. Do not exceed
the maximum vehicle capacity when
loading the vehicle, including cargo
carried on the roof rack system,
passengers and cargo carried in the
vehicle. For more information on
vehicle capacity and loading, see
Vehicle Load Limits.

Seats and Restraints 59
For frontal airbags, the word
AIRBAG is on the center of the
steering wheel for the driver and on
the instrument panel for the front
outboard passenger.
For seat-mounted side impact
airbags, the word AIRBAG is on the
side of the seatback or side of the
seat closest to the door.
For roof-rail airbags, the word
AIRBAG is on the ceiling or trim.
Airbags are designed to supplement
the protection provided by seat
belts. Even though today's airbags
are also designed to help reduce
the risk of injury from the force of an
inflating bag, all airbags must inflate
very quickly to do their job.
Here are the most important things
to know about the airbag system:
{Warning
You can be severely injured or
killed in a crash if you are not
wearing your seat belt, even with(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
airbags. Airbags are designed to
work with seat belts, not replace
them. Also, airbags are not
designed to inflate in every crash.
In some crashes seat belts are
the only restraint. See When
Should an Airbag Inflate? 062.
Wearing your seat belt during a
crash helps reduce your chance
of hitting things inside the vehicle
or being ejected from it. Airbags
are “supplemental restraints” to
the seat belts. Everyone in the
vehicle should wear a seat belt
properly, whether or not there is
an airbag for that person.
{Warning
Because airbags inflate with great
force and faster than the blink of
an eye, anyone who is up
against, or very close to, any
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
airbag when it inflates can be
seriously injured or killed. Do not
sit unnecessarily close to any
airbag, as you would be if sitting
on the edge of the seat or leaning
forward. Seat belts help keep you
in position before and during a
crash. Always wear a seat belt,
even with airbags. The driver
should sit as far back as possible
while still maintaining control of
the vehicle. The seat belts and
the front outboard passenger
airbags are most effective when
you are sitting well back and
upright in the seat with both feet
on the floor.
Occupants should not lean on or
sleep against the door or side
windows in seating positions with
seat-mounted side impact airbags
and/or roof-rail airbags.

60 Seats and Restraints
{Warning
Children who are up against,
or very close to, any airbag when
it inflates can be seriously injured
or killed. Always secure children
properly in the vehicle. To read
how, seeOlder Children 070 or
Infants and Young Children 072.
There is an airbag readiness light
on the instrument cluster, which
shows the airbag symbol.
The system checks the airbag
electrical system for malfunctions.
The light tells you if there is an
electrical problem. See Airbag
Readiness Light 0113.
Where Are the Airbags?
The driver frontal airbag is in the
center of the steering wheel.
The front outboard passenger
frontal airbag is in the passenger
side instrument panel.

The roof-rail airbags for the driver,
front outboard passenger, and

windows.
{Warning
If something is between an
occupant and an airbag, the
airbag might not inflate properly
or it might force the object into
that person causing severe injury
or even death. The path of an
inflating airbag must be kept
clear. Do not put anything
between an occupant and an
airbag, and do not attach or put
anything on the steering wheel
hub or on or near any other
airbag covering.
Do not use seat accessories that
block the inflation path of a
seat-mounted side impact airbag.
Never secure anything to the roof
of a vehicle with roof-rail airbags
by routing a rope or tie‐down
through any door or window
opening. If you do, the path of an
inflating roof-rail airbag will be
blocked.

airbag causing the bag to break out
of the cover. The inflator, the airbag,
and related hardware are all part of
the airbag module.
For airbag locations, seeWhere Are
the Airbags? 060.
How Does an Airbag
Restrain?
In moderate to severe frontal or
near frontal collisions, even belted
occupants can contact the steering
wheel or the instrument panel. In
moderate to severe side collisions,
even belted occupants can contact
the inside of the vehicle.
Airbags supplement the protection
provided by seat belts by
distributing the force of the impact
more evenly over the
occupant's body.
Rollover capable roof-rail airbags
are designed to help contain the
head and chest of occupants in the
outboard seating positions in the
first and second rows. The rollover
capable roof-rail airbags are
designed to help reduce the risk of full or partial ejection in rollover
events, although no system can
prevent all such ejections.
But airbags would not help in many
types of collisions, primarily
because the occupant's motion is
not toward those airbags. See
When
Should an Airbag Inflate? 062.
Airbags should never be regarded
as anything more than a supplement
to seat belts.
What Will You See after
an Airbag Inflates?
After frontal and seat-mounted side
impact airbags inflate, they quickly
deflate, so quickly that some people
may not even realize the airbags
inflated. Roof-rail airbags may still
be at least partially inflated for some
time after they inflate. Some
components of the airbag module
may be hot for several minutes. For
location of the airbags, see Where
Are the Airbags? 060.
The parts of the airbag that come
into contact with you may be warm,
but not too hot to touch. There may be some smoke and dust coming
from the vents in the deflated
airbags. Airbag inflation does not
prevent the driver from seeing out of
the windshield or being able to steer
the vehicle, nor does it prevent
people from leaving the vehicle.
{Warning
When an airbag inflates, there
may be dust in the air. This dust
could cause breathing problems
for people with a history of
asthma or other breathing trouble.
To avoid this, everyone in the
vehicle should get out as soon as
it is safe to do so. If you have
breathing problems but cannot
get out of the vehicle after an
airbag inflates, then get fresh air
by opening a window or a door.
If you experience breathing
problems following an airbag
deployment, you should seek
medical attention.
