•
The vehicle center of gravity will
be higher when items are loaded
onto the roof rack. Avoid sud-
den starts, braking, sharp turns,
abrupt maneuvers or
speeds that may result in loss of
vehicle control or
resulting in an accident.
•
Always drive slowly and turn
corners carefully when carrying
items on the roof rack. Severe
wind updrafts, caused by pass-
ing vehicles or natural causes,
can cause sudden upward
pressure on items loaded on
the roof rack. This is especially
true when carrying large, flat
items such as wood panels or
mattresses. This could cause
the items to fall off the roof rack
and cause damage to your vehi-
cle or others around you.
•
To prevent damage or loss of
cargo while driving, check fre-
quently before or while driving
to make sure the items on the
roof rack are securely fastened.
