WARNING
• Properly secure all cargo with ropes or
straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. Do not place cargo higher than
the seatbacks. In a sudden stop or colli-
sion, unsecured cargo could cause per-
sonal injury.
• Use suitable ropes and hooks to secure
cargo.
• Never allow anyone to ride in the lug-
gage area. It is extremely dangerous to
ride in a cargo area inside of a vehicle. In a
collision, people riding in these areas are
more likely to be seriously injured or
killed.
• Do not allow people to ride in any area of
your vehicle that is not equipped with
seats and seat belts.
• The child restraint top tether strap may
be damaged by contact with items in the
cargo area. Secure any items in the cargo
area. Your child could be seriously injured
or killed in a collision if the top tether
strap is damaged.
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a
seat and using a seat belt properly.
ROOF RACK (if so equipped)
WARNING
• Always install the crossbars 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.
• Roof rack cross bars should be evenly
distributed.
• Do not exceed maximum roof rack cross-
bars load capacity and always distribute
the load uniformly. •
Heavy loading of the crossbars has the
potential to affect the vehicle stability
and handling during sudden or unusual
handling maneuvers.
• Properly secure all cargo with ropes or
straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. In a sudden stop or collision, un-
secured cargo could cause personal
injury.
• 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
crossbars.CAUTION
• Use care when placing or removing items
from the roof rack. If you cannot com-
fortably lift the items onto the roof rack
from the ground, use a ladder or a stool.
Do not apply any load directly to the roof side
rails
OA. CrossbarsOBmust be installed be-
fore applying load/cargo/luggage to the
roof of the vehicle.
INFINITI accessory crossbars may be avail-
able through an INFINITI retailer. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
additional information.
