INSTALLATION AND CARGO LOADING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Check that there is no debris and the roof is clean.
2. Place the your cargo bag on the vehicle roof between the roof rack side rails.
If cross bars are installed on your vehicle, reposition the cross bars near your cargo bag.

.
3. Place items in plastic bags before loading for extra protection from water condensation.
4. Unzip the bag and load cargo into the bag. Place heavy, large objects in first. This may require a partner to help
you. Continue loading lighter items on the top, creating a compact load.
5. Close the zipper and fold the flap to completely cover the entire zipper and secure using hook and loop fasteners
to hold the flap in place.
6. Feed the straps through the strap holder locations.
7. Loop both ends of each strap under either a side rail or a cross bar. Feed ends through the buckles.

.
Alternate tightening both ends of each strap until the Cargo Bag is secure. Tie off excess strap toprevent the
straps from flapping while driving.
8. A minimum of two straps must be used at all times. If your vehicle has:
Both side rails and cross bars
– Use all four straps.
Side rails only
– Use two straps on the driver side and two straps on the
passenger side. NOTE: To prevent the bag from sliding off the back of the roof, the front strap must be forward of
the side rail center support post on both sides.
Cross bars only
– Use two straps on the front and two straps on the rear.
9. NEVER use straps to secure additional cargo. All objects must be placed inside your cargo bag.
10. CHECK THAT THE CARGO BAG IS SECURE.
If the cargo bag is not secure, DO NOT use the cargo bag. Remember the cargo can shift
during travel. Readjust as needed. If movement continues, stop use.
