Driving tips
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and front and rear Gross Axle Weight Rat-
ing (GAWR). See the “Loading your vehicle” section in this chapter for
information on loading cargo into or onto your vehicle. The maximum
load limit of the cargo, crossbars and carrying attachment must not ex-
ceed 100 lb. (45 kg). Place the heaviest load at the bottom, nearest the
roof, and evenly distribute the cargo. Always properly secure all cargo.
B Installing carrying attachments on the crossbars
When installing any carrying attachment such as a bike carrier, ski
carrier, kayak carrier, cargo basket, etc. on the crossbars, follow the
manufacturer’s instructions and make sure that the attachment is se-
curely fixed to the crossbars. Use only attachments designed specifi-
cally for the crossbars. A set of the crossbars is designed to carry
loads (cargo and attachment) of not more than 100 lb. (45 kg). Before
operating the vehicle, make sure that the cargo is properly secured
on the attachment.
NOTE
Remember that the vehicle’s center of gravity is altered with the
weight of the load on the roof, thus affecting the driving charac-
teristics.
Drive carefully. Avoid rapid starts, hard cornering and abrupt
stops. Crosswind effects will be increased.
B Removal and installation of the crossbars
CAUTION
Do not carry cargo on the roof when the crossbars are removed.
Luggage on the roof will be thrown forward or backward in sud-
den stops or rapid accelerations, resulting in a dangerous road
hazard.
The crossbars can be removed when you do not use the roof to carry
cargo.
