To adjust the position of the crossrails, do the following:

1. Turn the eight knobs counterclockwise to loosen

the crossrails.

2. Slide the crossrails to the desired position for

loading the luggage.

3. After adjusting the crossrails, be sure to tighten all

the knobs by turning the knobs clockwise.

Notice: Loading cargo that weighs more than
75 lbs. (34 kg) on the luggage carrier may damage
your vehicle. When you carry large things, never let
them hang over the rear or the sides of your
vehicle. When loading cargo, be sure it rests on the
crossrails and does not scratch or damage the
vehicle.

Put the cargo against the side rails and fasten it
securely to the luggage carrier. Put the main weight
as far forward as you can and move the rear
crossrail as far forward as possible to keep the load
from shifting.

Don’t exceed the maximum vehicle capacity when
loading your vehicle. For more information on vehicle
capacity and loading, see

Loading Your Vehicle on

page 4-32.

To prevent damage or loss of cargo as you’re driving,
check now and then to make sure the luggage
carrier and cargo are still securely fastened.
