Roof rack (if equipped)
If the vehicle has a roof rack, you can
load cargo on top of the vehicle by
installing roof bars. Roof bars suitable for
this application, can be purchased from
your HYUNDAI authorised repairer that
will attach to the roof rack.

NOTICE
If the vehicle is equipped with a sunroof,
be sure not to position cargo onto the
roof rack in such a way that it could
interfere with sunroof operation.
EXTERIOR FEATURES
(Continued)
• The vehicle centre of gravity will
be higher when items are loaded
onto the roof rack. Avoid sudden
starts,
braking,
sharp turns,
abrupt manoeuvres or high
speeds that may result in loss of
vehicle control or rollover result-
ing in an accident.
• Always drive slowly and turn cor-
ners carefully when carrying
items on the roof rack.
Severe
wind updrafts, caused by passing
vehicles or natural causes, can
cause sudden upward pressure
on items loaded on the roof rack.
This is especially true when car-
rying large, flat items such as
wood panels 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 whilst driving, check fre-
quently before or whilst driving to
make sure the items on the roof
rack are securely fastened.
CAUTION
• When carrying cargo on the roof
rack, take the necessary precau-
tions to make sure the cargo does
not damage the roof of the vehicle.
• When carrying large objects on
the roof rack, make sure they do
not exceed the overall roof length
or width.
WARNING
• The following specification is the
maximum weight that can be
loaded onto the roof rack.
Distribute the load as evenly as
possible onto the roof rack and
secure the load firmly.
Loading cargo or luggage in
excess of the specified weight
limit on the roof rack may dam-
age your vehicle.
