LUGGAGE RACK

The maximum load for the roof rack is 100 lbs (45 kg), evenly
distributed on the crossbars. If it is not possible to evenly distribute the

equipped) as possible. Always use the adjustable tie down loops to
secure the load.

To adjust the cross-bar (if equipped) position:

1. Loosen the thumbwheel at both ends of the cross-bar (both

cross-bars are adjustable).

2. Slide the cross-bar to the desired location.

3. Tighten the thumbwheel at both ends of the cross-bar.

To remove the cross-bar assembly (if equipped) from the roof
rack side rails:

1. Loosen the thumbwheel at both

ends of the cross-bar (both
cross-bars are adjustable).

2. Slide the cross-bar to the end of

the rail.

3. Use a long, flat object to

depress the tongue in the
endcaps on both sides of the
cross-bar.

To reinstall the cross-bar assembly (if equipped) to the roof rack
side rails:
