Utility hook

The utility hook can be used to
hang small items such as grocery
bags, etc. Do not hang more than
10 lb (4.5 kg) on the hook.

LUGGAGE RACK (IF EQUIPPED)

The load must be placed directly on the luggage rack. The vehicle’s roof
panel is not designed to carry a load.

When loading the luggage rack, it is recommended to evenly distribute
the load, as well as maintain a low center of gravity. Ensure that the load
is securely fastened. The maximum load for the roof rack is 100 lb
(45 kg).

Your fuel economy will decrease when you drive with items on the
luggage rack. When the rack is loaded, check the tightness of the load
before driving and at each refueling stop.

WARNING: Loaded vehicles, with a higher center of gravity,
may handle differently than unloaded vehicles. Extra

precautions, such as slower speeds and increased stopping distance,
should be taken when driving a heavily loaded vehicle.
