Cargo Tie-Downs
The vehicle has four cargo tie-downs
in the rear compartment.
Roof Rack System
The vehicle may be 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
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. The maximum cargo

weight that can be loaded onto the
roof rack system is 100 kg (220 lb)
or the weight designated in the
instructions that came with the cross
rails or other roof rack accessories,
whichever is less.
{Warning
Never load the roof rack with more
weight than specified in this
section. Loading cargo on the roof
rack will make the vehicle's center
of gravity higher. To avoid losing
control of the vehicle, avoid
overloading, 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 and passengers and
cargo carried in the vehicle. For more
information on vehicle capacity and
loading, see Vehicle Load Limits 0214.

washer fluid and activate the wipers.
The wipers will continue until the
lever is released or the maximum
wash time is reached. When the

has been activated. See Washer Fluid
0 299 for information on filling the
windshield washer fluid reservoir.
{Warning
In freezing weather, do not use the
washer until the windshield is

carefully loosen or thaw them.
Damaged blades should be replaced.
See Wiper Blade Replacement 0303.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the

wipers are performing wipes due to
windshield washing or Rainsense, the
wipers continue to run until they
reach the base of the windshield.
Rainsense
If equipped with Rainsense and the
feature is turned on, a sensor near the

current sensitivity setting.
Keep this area of the windshield clear
of debris to allow for best system
performance.
AUTO :
Move the windshield wiper
lever to AUTO. Turn the band on the
wiper lever to adjust the sensitivity.
