CAUTION!

To avoid damaging the electrical conductors of the
rear window defroster, do not use scrapers, sharp
instruments, or abrasive window cleaners on the
interior surface of the window.

Labels can be peeled off after soaking with warm
water.

ROOF LUGGAGE RACK — IF EQUIPPED

External racks do not increase the total load carrying
capacity of the vehicle. Be sure that the total occupant
and luggage load inside the vehicle, plus the load on the
luggage rack, do not exceed the rated vehicle capacity.

This vehicle is not equipped with roof rack cross rails as
built, unless ordered as optional equipment. Cross rails
must be installed prior to carrying loads on the roof rack.
If not equipped, your authorized dealer can order and

install Mopar

௡ cross rails built specifically for this roof

rack system or a number of after market rails that are
tailored to your life-style or activities.

The optional cross rails have five specific locations iden-
tified by a feature on both the side rail and the cross rail.
Cross rails must be secured in one of the five detent
locations on the side rail to prevent movement with a
sudden stop. The cross rails must also be installed using
the correct orientation (the longer rail toward the front)
with the wind trip formation toward the front of the
vehicle as shown below. For improved windnoise perfor-
mance when cross rails are not in use, place them in
detent positions #1 (first detent from the front of the
vehicle) and #4 (second detent from the rear of the
vehicle) as indicated with a unique feature on the side
rails. The grab handles (A) on the back of the vehicle (if
equipped) are not to be used as a towing feature.
