Note: Loads should never be placed directly
on the roof panel. The roof panel is not
designed to directly carry a load.
For proper function of the roof rack system,
loads must be placed directly on crossbars
affixed to the roof rack side rails. Your
vehicle may be equipped with
factory-installed crossbars. Ford Genuine
Accessory crossbars, designed specifically
for your vehicle, are also recommended for
use with your roof rack system.
Make sure that the load is securely
fastened. Check the tightness of the load
before driving and at each fuel stop.
Adjusting the Crossbar (If Equipped)
Note: Wind noise can be minimized by
either removing or repositioning the crossbar
when not is use. Position the front crossbar
in the intermediate position to minimize
wind noise. The crossbar can be adjusted
or removed using the steps below.
1. Remove the crossbar thumbwheels at
both sides of the crossbar by turning
them counterclockwise.
2. Remove the crossbar by rotating it
clockwise and sliding the ends off of
the shoulder bolts in the side rails.
3. Move the front crossbar to the new side
rail position and slide the crossbar onto
the shoulder bolt at that position.
4. Replace and tighten the thumbwheels
at both sides of the crossbar by turning
them clockwise until tight.
Make sure to check that the thumbwheels
are tight each time load is added or
removed from the roof rack, and
periodically while traveling. Make sure that
the load is secure before traveling.
