Towing a trailer will adversely affect your
vehicle’s handling, performance, braking,
durability and driving economy (fuel con-
sumption, etc.).
If you do tow a trailer with this vehicle, be
sure to use proper equipment and cautious
steering and braking for safe driving.
 Before driving and after traveling a short dis-
tance, always check the load to make sure it
is securely fastened to the roof carrier.
Stop the vehicle periodically and check that
the load remains secure. If the load is not
secure, it could fall from the vehicle and
damage your vehicle, another vehicle or cre-
ate a road hazard.
NOTE
 To prevent wind noise or reduction in gas
mileage, remove the roof carrier when not in
use.

Before using an automatic car wash, check
with the attendant to determine if the roof
carrier should be removed.
