ROOF LUGGAGE RACK — IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Roof
Luggage Rack for transporting accessories.
Crossbars should always be used whenever
cargo is placed on the Roof Luggage Rack.
Check the straps frequently to be sure that the
load remains securely attached.
NOTE:
Crossbars can be purchased at an authorized
dealer through Mopar parts. External racks do
not increase the total load carrying capacity of
the vehicle. Be sure that the total occupant and
luggage load inside the vehicle, plus the load on
the Roof Luggage Rack, do not exceed the
maximum vehicle load capacity.
The load carried on the roof, when equipped
with a Roof Luggage Rack, must not exceed
110 lbs (50 kg), and it should be uniformly
distributed over the cargo area.
Do not use the sunroof when using the
crossbars.
WARNING!
Cargo must be securely tied down before
driving your vehicle. Improperly secured loads
can fly off the vehicle, particularly at high
speeds, resulting in personal injury or
property damage. Follow the roof rack
cautions when carrying cargo on your roof
rack.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to the Roof Luggage Rack
and vehicle, do not exceed the maximum
roof rack load capacity. Always distribute
heavy loads as evenly as possible and
secure the load appropriately.
Long loads, which extend over the wind-
shield, such as wood panels or surfboards,
should be secured to both the front and
rear of the vehicle.
Place a blanket or other protection
between the surface of the roof and the
load.
Travel at reduced speeds and turn corners
carefully when carrying large or heavy loads
on the roof rack. Wind forces, due to
natural causes or nearby truck traffic, can
add sudden upward lift. This is especially
true on large flat loads and may result in
damage to the cargo or your vehicle.
