Loading

Because roof racks raise the vehicle's center of gravity when loaded, they have a major effect on vehicle handling and steering response.

Therefore, note the following when loading and driving:

  • Do not exceed the approved roof/axle loads.
  • Distribute the roof load uniformly.
  • The roof load should not be too large in area.
  • Always load the heaviest pieces on the bottom.
  • Secure the roof luggage firmly, e.g., tie with ratchet straps.
  • Do not let objects project into the opening path of the trunk lid.
  • Drive smoothly. Avoid sudden acceleration and braking maneuvers. Take corners gently.
