If you must carry cargo that protrudes beyond the rear of the
cargo area, make sure to:
Secure it so that it will not slide out.
Hang a signal (e.g., red ag) on the
end as required by
local law.
Let it protrude no more than local law allows.
Keep one or both of the 30/70 doors from obscuring a
taillight.
Keep the interior
well-ventilated and your trip short to minimize
the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING:
Failure to follow the instructions and
precautions above and
in the Overview
subsection may result in serious injury and
death.
Your cargo area is part of the crush zone in the
event your Grenadier
is hit from behind. In a
rear impact, the cargo in the cargo area can be
shoved forward as the crush zone responds to
an impact. That can increase the risk of serious
injury and death to occupants.
ROOF LOADING
The full length
INEOS Roof Rack accessory (not including its own
weight) can accommodate up to 330 lb. (150 kg.) of the remaining
cargo capacity while driving and up to 925 lb. (420 kg.) while
parked. Why the dierence? When you are camping, you may wish
to move cargo from the cargo area to the roof.When driving, loads
placed on the roof exert a high roll force on the vehicle due to
their distance from the center of gravity. Loads greater than 330 lb
reduces handling and stability beyond safe limits.
The capacities of the 6-foot INEOS roof rack accessory are lower:
264 lb. (120 kg.) when driving and 826 lb. (375 kg.) when parked.
Only INEOS Roof Rack/Roof Bars accessories are designed to be
xed to the drain gutter.
Be careful of height clearances when driving with objects on the
roof. You may hit an overhead structure (e.g., signs, garage,
parking space cover).
If you must carry cargo that protrudes beyond the roof, make sure
to:
Secure it so that it will not slide o.
Hang a signal (e.g., red ag, reector, light) on
the rear,
especially if and as required by local law.
Let it protrude no more than local law allows.
Be careful not to hit anything or anyone with it while
driving.
