LUGGAGE RACK

Your vehicle may be equipped with a
roof rack. The maximum load for
the roof rack is 100 lbs (44 kg),
evenly distributed on the cross-bars.
If it is not possible to evenly
distribute the load, position it in the
center or as far forward on the
cross-bars as possible. Always use
the adjustable tie down loops to
secure the load.

Do not use the vehicle’s door handles as tie down loops.

To adjust the cross-bar position:

1. Loosen the thumbwheel at both
ends of the cross-bar (both
cross-bars are adjustable).

2. Slide the cross-bar to the desired
location.

3. Tighten the thumbwheel at both
ends of the cross-bar.

To remove the cross-bar assembly from the roof rack side rails:

1. Loosen the thumbwheel at both
ends of the cross-bar (both
cross-bars are adjustable).
