Roof Rack Provisions; Convenience Net - Cadillac 2004 CTS Owner's Manual

Roof Rack Provisions

{
CAUTION:
If you try to carry something on top of your
vehicle that is longer or wider than the luggage
carrier — like paneling, plywood, a mattress and
so forth — the wind can catch it as you drive
along. This can cause you to lose control.
What you are carrying could be violently torn
off, and this could cause you or other drivers to
have a collision, and of course damage your
vehicle. You may be able to carry something like
this inside. But, never carry something longer
or wider than the luggage carrier on top of your
vehicle.
Your vehicle has mounting locations for the installation
of a roof rack or luggage carrier. The mounting
locations are located on the roof rail. You must open the
doors to access them. The threaded nuts are covered
with a plastic cap that must be removed before use.
For more information on purchasing the rack/carrier as
well as installation information, contact your dealer.

Convenience Net

The convenience net attaches to the floor and back wall
of the trunk using four anchor points allowing for two
positions. The net can be attached like a hammock
or anchored to lay flat across the floor of the trunk. Put
small loads, like grocery bags, behind the net. It can
help keep them from falling over during sharp turns or
quick starts and stops.
The net is not for larger, heavier loads. Store them in the
trunk as far forward as you can. When not using the net,
hook the net to the tabs securing it to the sill plate.
