Roof Racks and Load Carriers
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. |
The maximum recommended load is
50 lb (22 kg) for vehicles with a panoramic roof, and
80 lb (36 kg) for vehicles without a panoramic roof. For vehicles with adaptive suspension, the maximum recommended load is
80 lb (36 kg), regardless of roof type. Evenly distribute the load on the roof rack.
Note:
Never place loads directly on the roof panel.The intended design of the roof panel is not to directly carry a load.
Make sure that you securely fasten the load. Check the tightness of the load before driving and at each fuel stop.
