Distribute cargo weight evenly on the luggage rack cross-
bars. The luggage rack does not increase the total load
carrying capacity of the vehicle. Be sure the total load of
cargo inside the vehicle plus that on the external rack does
not exceed the maximum vehicle load capacity.
The crossbars must also be secured in one of the seven
detent positions marked with an arrow on the siderails to
prevent movement. To move the crossbars, loosen the
thumb screws located at the upper edge of each crossbar
approximately eight turns, then move the crossbar to the
desired position, keeping the crossbars perpendicular to
the luggage rack side rails. Once the crossbar is in one of
the seven detent positions, retighten the thumb screws to
lock the crossbar into position.
NOTE:
•
To help control wind noise when the crossbars are not in
use, place the front crossbar in the first detent from the
front of the vehicle and the rear crossbar in the second
detent from the rear of the vehicle.
•
If the rear crossbar (or any metallic object) is placed over
the satellite radio antenna (if equipped), you may expe-
rience interruption of satellite radio reception. For im-
proved satellite radio reception, place the rear crossbar
in the second detent from the rear of the vehicle when
not in use.
WARNING!
Cargo must be securely tied before driving your ve-
hicle. Improperly secured loads can fly off the vehicle,
particularly at high speeds, resulting in personal injury
or property damage. Follow the roof rack cautions
when carrying cargo on your roof rack.
