Roof Racks And Load Carriers - Lincoln MKX 2014 Owner's Manual

206
ROOF RACKS AND LOAD CARRIERS (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING: When loading the roof racks, we recommend you
evenly distribute the load, as well as maintain a low center of
gravity. Loaded vehicles, with higher centers of gravity, may handle
differently than unloaded vehicles. Take extra precautions, such as
slower speeds and increased stopping distance, when driving a heavily
loaded vehicle.
Note: The maximum recommended load, evenly distributed on the
crossbars, is 100 pounds (45 kilograms).
Note: Never place loads directly on the roof panel. The roof panel is not
designed to directly carry a load.
For correct roof rack system function, you must place loads directly on
crossbars affixed to the roof rack side rails. We recommend you use Ford
Genuine Accessory crossbars designed specifically for your vehicle.
Make sure that you securely fasten the load. Check the tightness of the
load before driving and at each fuel stop.
