To remove the cross-bar assembly (if equipped) from the roof rack
side rails:
1. Loosen the thumbwheel at both
ends of the cross-bar (both
cross-bars are adjustable).
2. Slide the cross-bar to the end of
the rail.
3. Use a long, flat object to depress
the tongue in the endcaps on both
sides of the cross-bar.
4. Slide the cross-bar assembly off
the end of the rail.
Be sure to check that the thumbwheels are tight each time load is
added, or removed from the roof rack, and periodically while traveling.
Always ensure the load is secure before traveling.
Note: When the cross bars are installed and unloaded, noise can be
minimized by removing, or re-positioning the cross bars. Position the
forward cross bar rearward of the center of the roof rail system by 2.5 in
(63.5 mm) and space the second cross bar 2.5 in (63.5 mm) from the
forward cross bar.
