Doors and locks
J Roof rack (When luggage is put on the slats of the roof cross bar
kit)
When the roof cross bar kit is used as roof rack, make sure the total car-
rying capacity of the luggage on the slats of the roof cross bar kit does
not exceed 100 lb. (45 kg). Overloading may cause damage to the roof
and create a safety hazard. Always evenly distribute the luggage and
secure it with straps or nets.
J Installing carrying attachments on the cross bars
When installing any carrying attachment such as a bike carrier, ski carri-
er, canue carrier, etc. on the cross bars, follow the manufacturer's
instructions and make sure that the attachment is securely fixed to the
cross bars. A set of the cross bars is designed to carry loads (luggage
and attachment) of not more than 100 lb. (45 kg). Before operating the
vehicle, make sure that the luggage is properly secured on the attach-
ment.
