and 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 re-
garding GVWR and GAWR, refer to “Vehicle
loading information” (P.10-15).
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
capacity, especially if the significant
portion of that load is carried on the
roof rack.
. Heavy loading of the roof rack has
the potential to affect the vehicle
stability and handling during sudden
or unusual handling maneuvers.
. Roof rack load should be evenly
distributed.
. Do not exceed maximum roof rack
load weight capacity.
. Properly secure all cargo with ropes
or straps to help prevent it from
sliding or shifting. In a sudden stop or collision, unsecured cargo could
cause personal injury.
The sound with a feeling of oppression may
occur with the rear windows open and front
windows close. To reduce the sound, slightly
open either a front window or the moonroof.
POWER WINDOWS
WARNING
The driver is always responsible for all
the power window operation including
passenger’s operation. Be sure to ob-
serve the following warnings for safety.
.
Never allow anyone to extend any
portion of their body or objects out of
the opening while the vehicle is in
motion. Otherwise they may be ser-
iously damaged by coming into con-
tact with objects outside the vehicle
or when abruptly braking.
. Make sure that all passengers have
their hands, etc. inside the vehicle
before operating the power win-
dows. Do not intentionally activate
the auto-reverse function. If their
hands or faces are caught in the
windows, it could cause serious in-
jury.
. Never allow children to operate the
power window. Improper operation
by children could lead to an accident.

Depress the window lock button
since children or other persons could
be caught in the power window and
this may cause serious damage.
. When operating the power windows,
let children know it and make sure
that their hands, arms, etc. are not
placed near the power windows.
Otherwise they may be caught in
the power windows.
. Make sure that the ignition switch is
in the OFF position and do not leave
the Intelligent Key and children un-
attended inside the vehicle. They
could unknowingly activate switches
or controls. Unattended children
could become involved in serious
accidents.
. To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the
vehicle and or its systems, including
entrapment in windows or inadver-
tent door lock activation, do not
leave children, people who require
the assistance of others or pets
unattended in your vehicle. Addition-
ally, the temperature inside a closed
vehicle on a warm day can quickly
become high enough to cause a sig-
nificant risk of injury or death to
people and pets. The power windows operate when the
ignition switch is in the ON position or for
about 45 seconds after the ignition switch is
pushed to the OFF position. If the driver’s or
front passenger’s door is opened during this
period of about 45 seconds, power to the
windows is canceled.
