CARGO NETS (IF EQUIPPED)

WARNING: This net is not designed to restrain objects during a
collision or heavy braking.

The cargo net secures lightweight
objects in the cargo area. Attach
the net to the loops and anchors
provided.

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.
