Trailer towing

WARNING
 Make sure that the weight of luggage and
the roof carrier do not exceed the maxi-
mum roof load, 110 lb (50 kg). If the maxi-
mum roof load is exceeded, this could
cause damage to the vehicle or result in an
accident.
 The total weight of all occupants and lug-
gage, including your roof load, must not
6
exceed the vehicle capacity weight. For
more information, refer to "Tire and load-
ing information placard" on page 11-3.
 Roof load is determined by adding the
weight of the roof carrier and the weight
of the luggage placed on the roof carrier.
CAUTION
 Do not load luggage directly onto the roof.
Use a roof carrier that properly fits your
vehicle.
For installation, refer to the instruction man-
ual provided with the roof carrier.
 Place the luggage on the carrier so that its
weight is distributed evenly with the heaviest
items on the bottom. Do not load items that
are wider than the roof carrier.
6-12 Driving safety
CAUTION
 Before driving and after traveling a short dis-
tance, always check the load to make sure it
is securely fastened to the roof carrier.
Stop the vehicle periodically and check that
the load remains secure. If the load is not
secure, it could fall from the vehicle and
damage your vehicle, another vehicle or cre-
ate a road hazard.
NOTE
 To prevent wind noise or reduction in gas
mileage, remove the roof carrier when not in
use.
 Before using an automatic car wash, check
with the attendant to determine if the roof
carrier should be removed.
 Be sure that adequate clearance is main-
tained for raising the trunk lid during loading
luggage on the roof carrier.
