Knowing your vehicle
(Continued)
CAUTION
WARNING
•
Always drive slowly and turn cor-
ners carefully when carrying
items on the roof rack. Severe
wind updrafts, caused by passing
vehicles or natural causes, can
cause sudden upward pressure
on items loaded on the roof rack.
This is especially true when car-
rying large, flat items such as
wood panels or mattresses. This
could cause the items to fall off
the roof rack and cause damage
to your vehicle or those around
you.
•
If the vehicle has a sunroof, do
not position the roof rack loads
so that they could interfere with
the sunroof.
• Loading cargo or luggage above
specification on the roof rack may
damage your vehicle.
•
•
The following specification is the
maximum weight that can be
loaded onto the roof rack.
Distribute the load as evenly as
possible on the roof rack and
secure the load firmly.
ROOF
RACK
45 kg (100 lbs.)
EVENLY DISTRIBUTED
The vehicle center of gravity will
be higher when items are loaded
onto the roof rack. Avoid sudden
starts, braking, sharp turns,
abrupt maneuvers or high speeds
that may result in loss of vehicle
control or rollover causing an
accident.
•
To prevent damage or loss of
cargo while driving, check fre-
quently before or while driving to
make sure the items on the roof
rack are securely fastened.
