3. Use a long, flat object to
depress the tongue in the
endcaps on both sides of the
cross-bar.

Be sure to check that the thumbwheels are tight each time load is
added, or removed from the roof rack, and periodically while traveling.
Always ensure the load is secure before traveling.
Note: When the cross bars are installed and unloaded, noise can be
minimized by removing, or re-positioning the cross bars. Position the
forward cross bar rearward of the center of the roof rail system by 2.5 in
(63.5 mm) and space the second cross bar 2.5 in (63.5 mm) from the
forward cross bar.
