When you carry  cargo  on  the luggage carrier of  a 
proper size and weight, put it on the slats, as far fowa 
as you can. Then slide the crossrail up against the 
rear of the load, to help keep it  from  moving. You can 
then tie it down. 
Don’t exceed the maximum vehicle capacity when 
loading your vehicle. For more information on  vehicle 
capacity and loading, see

To 
prevent damage or

of cargo as you’re driving, 
check  now  and  then  to  make sure  the  luggage 
carrier and cargo are  still securely fastened.
