ROOF RACKS AND LOAD
CARRIERS
(If Equipped)
WARNINGS
If you use a roof rack, the fuel
consumption of your vehicle will be
higher and you may experience
different driving characteristics.
Read and follow the manufacturer’s
instructions when you are fitting a
roof rack.
When loading the roof racks, we
recommend you evenly distribute the
load, as well as maintain a low
center of gravity. Loaded vehicles, with
higher centers of gravity, may handle
differently than unloaded vehicles. Take
extra precautions, such as slower speeds
and increased stopping distance, when
driving a heavily loaded vehicle.
The maximum recommended load, evenly
distributed on the roof rack, is 75 kg.
Note:
Never place loads directly on the roof
panel. The roof panel is not designed to
directly carry a load.
For correct roof rack system function, you
must place loads directly on crossbars
affixed to the roof rack side rails. When
using the roof rack system, we recommend
you use Ford Genuine Accessory crossbars
designed specifically for your vehicle.
Make sure that you securely fasten the
load. Check the tightness of the load
before driving and at each fuel stop.
Towbar Carriers
When using a towbar attached carrier,
consider the following:
•
Do not exceed the maximum vertical
weight on the towball (weight of the
carrier plus weight of the load).
•
Pay attention to the carrier
manufacturer's specifications.
•
If you are using a bike carrier, the
maximum number of allowed bikes is
three, with a maximum allowed weight
of 60 kg.
•
Load the heaviest item closest to the
vehicle.
