ROOF LUGGAGE RACK IF EQUIPPED
The side rails and crossbars are designed to carry weight
on vehicles equipped with a luggage rack. The load must
not exceed 150 lbs (68 kg), and it should be uniformly
distributed over the luggage rack crossbars.
NOTE: Crossbars are offered by MOPAR accessories.
Crossbars should always be used whenever cargo is
placed on the roof rack. Load should always be secured
to cross bars first, with tie down loops used as additional
securing points if needed. Tie loops are intended as
supplementary tie down points only. Do not use ratchet-
ing mechanisms with the tie loops. Check the straps
frequently to be sure that the load remains securely
attached.
The roof rack does not increase the total load carrying
capacity of the vehicle. Be sure the total load of cargo
inside the vehicle plus that on the external rack does not
exceed the maximum vehicle load capacity.
CAUTION!
To prevent damage to the roof of your vehicle, DO
NOT carry any loads on the roof rack without the
crossbars installed. The load should be secured
and placed on top of the crossbars, not directly on
the roof. If it is necessary to place the load on the
roof, place a blanket or other protective layer
between the load and the roof surface.
