Cupholders; Roof Luggage Rack - If Equipped - Jeep Compass Operating Information Manual

CAUTION!
• Many accessories that can be plugged in
draw power from the vehicle's battery,
even when not in use (i.e., cellular phones,
etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long enough,
the vehicle's battery will discharge suffi-
ciently to degrade battery life and/or pre-
vent engine starting.
• Accessories that draw higher power (i.e.,
coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will
degrade the battery even more quickly.
Only use these intermittently and with great
caution.
• After the use of high power draw accesso-
ries, or long periods of the vehicle not
being started (with accessories
plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a
sufficient length of time to allow the gen-
erator to recharge the vehicle's battery.

ROOF LUGGAGE RACK — IF
EQUIPPED
The crossbars and siderails are designed to
carry the cargo on vehicles equipped with a
luggage rack. The load must not exceed 150 lbs
(68 kg), and should be uniformly distributed over
the luggage rack crossbars.
NOTE:
If not equipped with crossbars, your autho-
rized dealer can order and install MOPAR
crossbars built specifically for this roof rack
system.
Distribute cargo weight evenly on the luggage
rack crossbars. The luggage rack does not
increase the total load carrying capacity of the
vehicle. Be sure the total load of cargo inside the
vehicle plus that on the external rack does not
exceed the maximum vehicle load capacity.
The crossbars must also be secured in one of
the seven detent positions marked with an arrow
on the siderails to prevent movement. To move
the crossbars, loosen the thumb screws located
at the upper edge of each crossbar approxi-
mately eight turns, then move the crossbar to
the desired position, keeping the crossbars per-
pendicular to the luggage rack side rails. Once
the crossbar is in one of the seven detent
positions, retighten the thumb screws to lock the
crossbar into position.
NOTE:
• To help control wind noise when the
crossbars are not in use, place the front
crossbar in the first detent from the front
of the vehicle and the rear crossbar in the
second detent from the rear of the vehicle.
