Caution: If something is carried on top of the vehicle that is longer or wider than the luggage carrier -- like paneling, plywood, or a mattress-- the wind can catch it while the vehicle is being driven. This can cause a driver to lose control. The item being carried could be violently torn off, and this could cause a collision, and damage the vehicle. Items may be carried inside. Never carry something longer or wider than the luggage carrier on top of the vehicle.
The luggage carrier allows the loading of things on top of the vehicle. Crossrails are available at your dealer/retailer.
Notice: Loading cargo on the luggage carrier that weighs more than 200 lbs (91 kg) or hangs over the rear or sides of the vehicle can damage the vehicle. Load cargo so that it rests as far forward as possible and against the side rails, making sure to fasten it securely.
Do not exceed the maximum vehicle capacity when loading the vehicle. For more information on vehicle capacity and loading, see Loading the Vehicle.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo while driving, check to make sure the cargo is still securely fastened.
