Roof Luggage Rack — If Equipped; Rear Window Defroster - Chrysler Patriot Owner's Manual

Rotate the center portion of the lever
past the first detent to activate that rear
washer. The washer pump will continue
to operate as long as the lever or ring is
engaged. Upon release, the wipers will cycle
two times before returning to the set position.
If the rear wiper is operating when the ignition is
turned OFF, the wiper will automatically return
to the "park" position if power accessory delay
is active. Power accessory delay can be can-
celled by opening the door, if this happens the
rear wiper will stop at its current position and
will not go to "park".

The rear window defroster button is
located on the bottom right-side of the
blower control knob. Press this button
to turn on the rear window defroster and the
heated outside mirrors (if equipped). An indi-
cator in the button will illuminate when the rear
window defroster is on. The rear window de-
froster automatically turns off after approxi-
mately 10 minutes. For an additional five min-
utes of operation, press the button a second
time.

ROOF LUGGAGE RACK — IF
EQUIPPED
The crossbars and siderails are designed to
carry the weight on vehicles equipped with a
luggage rack. The load must not exceed
150 lbs (68 kg), and should be uniformly dis-
tributed over the luggage rack crossbars.
NOTE:
If not equipped with crossbars, your autho-
rized dealer can order and install MOPAR
crossbars built specifically for this roof rack
system.
Distribute cargo weight evenly on the roof rack
crossbars. The roof rack does not increase the
total load carrying capacity of the vehicle. Be
sure the total load of cargo inside the vehicle
plus that on the external rack does not exceed
the maximum vehicle load capacity.
The optional crossbars must also be secured in
one of the seven detent positions marked with
an arrow on the siderails to prevent movement.
To move the crossbars, loosen the thumb
screws located at the upper edge of each
crossbar approximately eight turns, then move
the crossbar to the desired position, keeping
