Dialing Using the Cellular Phone Keypad You can dial a phone number with your cellular phone keypad and still use the UConnect™ system (while

dialing via the cell phone keypad, the user must exercise caution and take precautionary safety measures). By dialing a number with your paired Bluetooth™ cellular phone, the audio will be played through your vehicle’s audio system. The UConnect™ system will work the same as if you dial the number using voice recognition. NOTE: Certain brands of mobile phones do not send the dial ring to the UConnect™ system to play it on the vehicle audio system, so you will not hear it. Under this situation, after successfully dialing a number, the user may feel that the call did not go through even though the call is in progress. Once your call is answered, you will hear the audio. Mute/Un-mute (Mute off) When you mute the UConnect™ system, you will still be able to hear the conversation coming from the other party, but the other party will not be able to hear you.

Fog Lights — If Equipped

The fog light switch is located in the multi- function control lever. To activate the fog lights, turn on the park/turn lights, low beam headlights, or “Auto” headlights and pull out the end of the multi- function control lever. A light in the instrument cluster shows when the fog lights are on. NOTE: Turning on the high beam headlights turns off the fog lights. A front fog light is a lighting device providing illumina- tion forward of the vehicle under conditions of fog, rain, snow, or dust. Principally, the front fog light supplements the lower beam of a standard headlight system. NOTE: Proper aim and adjustments of the front fog lights should be made to prevent excessive glare for other drivers.

Turn Signals Move the multi-function control lever up or down and the arrows on each side of the instrument cluster will flash to show proper operation of the front and rear turn signal lights. You can signal a lane change by moving the lever partially up or down. High Beam Switch Pull the multi-function control lever towards you to switch the headlights to “High” beam. The “High Beam Indicator Light” on the instrument cluster will illumi- nate.Pull the multi-function control lever a second time to switch the headlights to “Low” beam. Passing Light You can signal another vehicle with your headlights by lightly pulling the multi-function control lever toward the steering wheel. This will cause the headlights to turn on at high beam and remain on until the lever is released.

Headlight Time Delay There is also a feature that delays turning off the vehicle lights for 30, 60, or 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned OFF. To activate the headlight delay, the multi- function control lever must be rotated to the “Off” position after the ignition switch is turned OFF. Only the headlights will illuminate during this time. Refer to “EVIC- Customer Programmable Features” in Section 4
to turn this feature “On/Off” or set the time interval.

Windshield Wiper/Washer Switch

NOTE: Always remove any build-up of snow that prevents the windshield wiper blades from returning to the OFF position. If the windshield wiper switch is turned off and the blades cannot return to the OFF position, damage to the wiper motor may occur.

118 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

To use the washer, pull the lever toward you and hold while spray is desired. If the lever is pulled while in the delay range, the wiper will operate for several seconds after the lever is released, and then resume the intermit- tent interval previously selected. If the lever is pulled while in the OFF position, the wipers will operate for several wipe cycles, then turn off.

WARNING!

Sudden loss of visibility through the windshield could lead to an accident. You might not see other vehicles or other obstacles. To avoid sudden icing of the windshield during freezing weather, warm the windshield with the defroster before and during windshield washer use.

Mist Use this feature when weather conditions make occa- sional usage of the wipers necessary. Pull down and release the control lever for a single wiping cycle. Speed Sensitive Intermittent Wiper System Use one of the five intermittent wiper speeds when weather conditions make a single wiping cycle, with a variable pause between cycles, desirable. Turn the end of the lever to one of the five delay positions for the desired delay interval. The delay can be regulated from a maxi- mum of approximately 18 seconds between cycles, to a cycle every 1/2 second. NOTE: The wiper delay times depend on vehicle speed. If the vehicle is moving less than 10 mph (16 km/h), delay times will be doubled.

Rain Sensing Wipers—If Equipped This feature senses moisture on the windshield and automatically activates the wipers for the driver. The feature is especially useful for road splash or overspray from the windshield washers of the vehicle ahead. Rotate the end of the multi-function lever to one of six settings to activate this feature.

Rain Sensitive Wiper Switch

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 119

The sensitivity of the system can be adjusted with the multi-function lever. Wiper delay position 1 is the least sensitive, and wiper delay position 5 is the most sensi- tive. Setting 3 should be used for normal rain conditions. Settings 1 and 2 can be used if the driver desires less wiper sensitivity. Settings 4 and 5 can be used if the driver desires more sensitivity. Place the wiper switch in the OFF position when not using the system. NOTE: • The rain sensing feature will not operate when the wiper switch is in the LOW or HIGH speed position. • The rain sensing feature may not function properly when ice, or dried salt water is present on the wind- shield. • Use of Rain-X威 or products containing wax or silicone

may reduce rain sensor performance.

120 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

• The rain sensing system will not operate under the following conditions: when the engine is running and the gear selector is in the PARK position, or when the vehicle is started in below freezing temperatures. This is done to protect the wiper blades from damage. Place the gear selector in the DRIVE position to allow the rain sensing feature to operate. • A customer programmable feature in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) allows the Rain Sense feature to be turned off. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)” in Section 4 of this manual.

Traction Control Switch

When the Traction Control System has been turned off using the switch, a feature of the system remains active. This feature functions similar to a limited slip differential and controls the wheel spin across an axle. If one wheel on an axle is spinning faster than the other, the system will apply the brake of the spinning wheel and allow more engine torque to be applied to the wheel that is not spinning. NOTE: • The “Traction Control Indicator Light” comes on mo- mentarily each time the ignition switch is turned ON. This will occur even if you used the switch to turn the system OFF. • Each time the ignition is turned ON, the Traction Control System will be ON even if it was turned OFF previously. • The Traction Control System will make buzzing or

clicking sounds when it is active.

There are two Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) messages associated with the Traction Control System. Refer to Section 4 of this manual. Traction Sys Disabled This message will be displayed if the Traction Control System has been turned off using the switch, or if there is a temporary condition that will will result in partial or no Traction Control System function. The “Traction Control Indicator Light” will be on when the system is disabled or only partial function is allowed. The “TRACTION SYS DISABLED” message and the “Traction Control Indicator Light” being illuminated without the switch being de- pressed is not an indication that service of the electronic brake system is required.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM (ESP)— IF EQUIPPED

WARNING!

ESP (Electronic Stability Program) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded. The ESP cannot prevent accidents, including those re- sulting from excessive speed in turns, or hydroplan- ing. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver can prevent accidents. The capabilities of an ESP- equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reck- less or dangerous manner which could jeopardize the user’s safety or the safety of others.

ESP (Electronic Stability Program) enhances directional control and reduces driving wheel spin of the vehicle under various driving conditions.

ESP corrects for over/understeering of the vehicle by applying brakes to the appropriate wheel. Engine torque is also limited. The “ESP Indicator Light,” located in the instrument cluster, starts to flash as soon as the tires lose traction and the ESP system becomes active.

ESP Indicator Light

To turn the ESP system OFF, press the switch, located below the climate controls in the center stack, until the ⬙ESP Indicator Light⬙ in the instrument cluster turns on and the message ⬙ESP SYSTEM DISABLED⬙ appears in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC). Refer to Section 4 of this manual. To turn the system back ON, press the switch a second time until the ⬙ESP Indicator Light⬙ turns off. ESP is always available during braking (in 4WD Hi) even if it has been switched off.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 125

ESP Control Switch

When the ESP system has been switched off, a feature of the system remains active. This feature functions similar to a limited slip differential and controls the wheel spin across an axle. If one wheel on an axle is spinning faster

126 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

than the other, the system will apply the brake of the spinning wheel and allow more engine torque to be applied to the wheel that is not spinning. To improve the vehicle’s traction when driving with snow chains, or starting off in deep snow, sand or gravel, it may be desirable to switch off the ESP by pressing the ESP switch. With the ESP switched off, the engine torque reduction and stability features are cancelled. Therefore, the en- hanced vehicle stability offered by ESP is unavailable. If the “ESP Indicator Light” begins to flash during acceleration, ease up on the accelerator and apply as little throttle as possible. Be sure to adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road conditions. When the “ESP Indicator Light” is illuminated continuously, the ESP is switched off. To return to the enhanced vehicle stability offered by ESP, press the ESP switch (the “ESP Indicator

Light” in the instrument cluster goes out). Avoid spin- ning one drive wheel. This may cause serious damage to the drive train. NOTE: • The “ESP Indicator Light” comes on momentarily each • Each time the ignition is turned ON, the ESP System • The ESP Control System will make buzzing or clicking

REAR PARK ASSIST SYSTEM— IF EQUIPPED The Rear Park Assist System provides visual and audible indications of the distance between the rear fascia and the detected obstacle when backing up. Refer to the Warning Section and Note Section for limitations of this system and recommendations. The Rear Park Assist System will remember the last system state (enabled or disabled) from the last ignition cycle when the ignition is changed to the RUN/ON position.

128 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

The Rear Park Assist System can be active only when the shifter is in R (Reverse). If the Rear Park Assist System is enabled at this shifter position, the system will be active until the vehicle speed is increased to approximately 11.2
miles/hr (18 km/h) or above. The system will be active again if the vehicle speed is decreased to speeds less than approximately 9.94 miles/hr (16 km/h). Rear Park Assist Sensors The four Rear Park Assist Sensors, located in the rear fascia, monitor the area behind the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view. The monitored area seems oval in shape. The sensors can detect obstacles from approximately 11.8
inches (30 cm) up to 59 inches (150 cm) from the rear fascia in the horizontal direction, depending on the location and orientation of the obstacle and the type of obstacle.

Rear Park Assist Warning Display The Rear Park Assist Warning Display, located in the headliner near the flipper glass, provides both visual and audible warnings to indicate the distance between the rear fascia and the detected obstacle.

Rear Park Assist Display

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 129

When the detected obstacle is about 11.8 inches (30 cm) from the rear fascia, the warning display will actuate a continuous tone for about 3 sec and it will turn ON all 8
LEDs, including both RED LEDs, on the corresponding side of the display. The radio will be muted while the tone is actuated. When the obstacle is less than 11.8 inches (30 cm) from the rear fascia, the warning display will either have all 8
LEDs ON (obstacle detected) or it will have only the outermost LEDs ON with decreased brightness (obstacle not detected), depending on the location of the obstacle.

When the ignition is changed to the RUN/ON position, the warning display will turn ON all of its LEDs for about 1 sec. Each side of the warning display has 6 yellow and 2 red LEDs. The vehicle is close to the obstacle when the red LED is ON. When the obstacle is detected at a distance of about 59
inches (150 cm) from the rear fascia, the outermost LEDs of the warning display will be ON with increased bright- ness. As the distance of the detected obstacle to the rear fascia decreases, more LEDs are illuminated. The warn- ing display will not actuate a tone when only yellow LEDs are ON. When the warning display has the first 7 LEDs ON, including 1 red LED, the warning display will actuate an intermittent tone for about 3 sec. The radio will be muted while the tone is actuated.

When the switch is pressed to disable the system, the instrument cluster will display the ⬙PARK ASSIST DIS- ABLED⬙ message. Refer to Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) in Section 4 of this manual. When the shifter is changed to R (Reverse) and the system is disabled, the instrument cluster will actuate a single chime, once per ignition cycle, and it will display the message. The Rear Park Assist Switch LED will be ON when the Rear Park Assist System is disabled or defective. The Rear Park Assist Switch LED will be OFF when the system is enabled. Service the Rear Park Assist System When the Rear Park Assist System is defective, the instrument cluster will actuate a single chime, once per ignition cycle, and it will display the ⬙SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM⬙ message. Refer to Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) in Section 4 of this manual.

Cleaning the Rear Park Assist System Clean the Rear Park Assist Sensors with water, car wash soap and a soft cloth. Do not use rough or hard cloths. Do not scratch or poke the sensors. Otherwise, you could damage the sensors.

CAUTION!

• The Rear Park Assist System is only a parking aid and it is unable to recognize every obstacle, in- cluding small obstacles. Parking curbs might be temporarily detected or not detected at all. Ob- stacles located above or below the sensors will not be detected when they are in close proximity. • The vehicle must be driven slowly when using the Rear Park Assist System to be able to stop in time when the obstacle is detected. It is recommended that the driver looks over his/her shoulder when using the Rear Park Assist System.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 131

WARNING!

• Drivers must be careful when backing up even when using the Rear Park Assist System. Always check carefully behind your vehicle, look behind you, and be sure to check for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, and blind spots before back- ing up. You are responsible for safety and must continue to pay attention to your surroundings. Fail- ure to do so can result in serious injury or death. • Before using the Rear Park Assist System, it is strongly recommended that the ball mount and hitch ball assembly is disconnected from the vehicle when the vehicle is not used for towing. Failure to do so can result in injury or damage to vehicles or ob- stacles because the hitch ball will be much closer to the obstacle than the rear fascia when the warning display turns the red LEDs ON. Also, the sensors could detect the ball mount and hitch ball assembly, depending on its size and shape, giving a false indication that an obstacle is behind the vehicle.

132 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

NOTE: Clean all four Rear Park Assist Sensors regularly, taking care not to scratch or damage them. The sensors must not be covered with ice, snow, slush, mud, dirt or debris. Failure to do so can result in the system not working properly. The system might not detect an ob- stacle behind the fascia or it could provide a false indication that an obstacle is behind the fascia. Assure objects are not within 11.8 inches (30 cm) from the rear fascia while driving the vehicle. Failure to do so can result in the system misinterpreting a close object as a sensor problem, causing the ⬙SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM⬙ message to be displayed in the instrument cluster.

Ultrasonic noise from airbrakes of nearby trucks, air powered jackhammers and air powered shop tools, to name a few, will cause the Rear Park Assist System to be disabled until the ultrasonic noise is no longer present.

ADJUSTABLE PEDALS — IF EQUIPPED This feature allows both the brake and accelerator pedals to move toward the driver to provide improved position with the steering wheel. The adjustable pedal system is designed to allow a greater range of driver comfort for steering wheel tilt and seat position. The position of the brake and accelerator pedals can be adjusted without compromising safety or comfort in actuating the pedals.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 133

• The pedals can be adjusted while driving. • The pedals cannot be adjusted when the vehicle is in R (Reverse) or when the Speed Control is ON.

POWER SUNROOF — IF EQUIPPED The power sunroof switch is located between the sun visors on the overhead console.

Power Sunroof Switch

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 145

WARNING!

• Never leave children in a vehicle, with the keys in the ignition switch. Occupants, particularly unat- tended children, can become entrapped by the power sunroof while operating the power sunroof switch. Such entrapment may result in serious injury or death. • In an accident, there is a greater risk of being thrown from a vehicle with an open sunroof. You could also be seriously injured or killed. Always fasten your seat belt properly and make sure all passengers are properly secured too. • Do not allow small children to operate the sun- roof. Never allow fingers or other body parts, or any object to project through the sunroof opening. Injury may result.

146 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

Opening Sunroof - Express Press the switch rearward and release, and the sunroof will open automatically from any position. The sunroof will open fully, then stop automatically. This is called Express Open. During Express Open operation, any movement of the sunroof switch will stop the sunroof. Closing Sunroof - Express Press the switch forward and release, and the sunroof will close automatically from any position. The sunroof will close fully and stop automatically. This is called Express Close. During Express Close operation, any movement of the switch will stop the sunroof. Pinch Protect Feature This feature will detect an obstruction in the opening of the sunroof during Express Close operation. If an ob- struction in the path of the sunroof is detected, the

sunroof will automatically retract. Remove the obstruc- tion if this occurs. Next, press the switch forward and release to Express Close. Pinch Protect Override If a known obstruction (ice, debris, etc.) prevents closing, press the switch forward and hold for two seconds after the reversal occurs. This allows the sunroof to move towards the closed position. NOTE: Pinch protection is disabled while the switch is pressed. Venting Sunroof - Express Press and release the ⬙V⬙ button, and the sunroof will open to the vent position. This is called Express Vent, and will occur regardless of sunroof position. During Express Vent operation, any movement of the switch will stop the sunroof.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 147

Sunroof Maintenance Use only a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth to clean the glass panel. Ignition Off Operation The power sunroof switches remain active for 10 minutes after the ignition switch has been turned off. Opening either front door will cancel this feature. Sunroof Fully Closed Press the switch forward and release to ensure that the sunroof is fully closed.

Sunshade Operation The sunshade can be opened manually. However, the sunshade will open automatically as the sunroof opens. NOTE: The sunshade cannot be closed if the sunroof is open. Wind Buffeting Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of pressure on the ears or a helicopter type sound in the ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open or partially open positions. This is a normal occur- rence and can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear windows open, open the front and rear windows together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to minimize the buffeting or open any window.

POWER OUTLET To the right of the convenience tray (lower center of instrument panel) is an outlet for electrically powered accessories. Pull lightly on the tab of the plastic cover to access the outlet.

Front Power Outlet

The rear power outlet (if equipped) is located in the left rear cargo area.

Rear Power Outlet

The power outlets are a direct feed from the battery so they receive power whether the ignition is in the ON or OFF position. All accessories connected to this outlet should be re- moved or turned off when the vehicle is not in use to protect the battery against discharge.

CAUTION!

Electrical Outlet Use With Engine Off • Many accessories that can be plugged in draw power from the vehicle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long enough, the vehicle’s battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life and/or prevent engine starting. • Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade the battery even more quickly. Only use these inter- mittently and with greater caution. • After the use of high power draw accessories, or long periods of the vehicle not being started (with accessories still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a sufficient length of time to allow the generator to recharge the vehicle’s battery.

CUP HOLDERS In the center console there are two cup holders for the front seat passengers.

Front Cup Holders

NOTE: The cup holder insert is removable, from the console, for cleaning. It can be reinstalled with the larger

150 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

cup depression towards the passenger seat, but the top surface will not be flush with the console surface. The rear passengers have access to two cup holders that pull out from the lower center of the rear seat.

CARGO AREA FEATURES

Cargo Light The cargo area light is activated by opening the liftgate, opening any door, or by rotating the dimmer control on the multi-function control lever to the extreme top posi- tion. If all doors are closed and only the liftgate is open, pushing on the cargo light lens surface will turn off all interior lamps. Push on the lens surface a second time to restore the interior lights to normal operation.

Rear Cup Holders

Rear Storage Compartment The rear storage compartment is located behind the left rear seat.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 151

Retractable Cargo Area Cover — If Equipped

NOTE: The purpose of this cover is for privacy, not to secure loads. It will not prevent cargo from shifting or protect passengers from loose cargo. To cover the cargo area: 1. Grasp the cover at the center handle. Pull it over the cargo area. 2. Insert the pins on the ends of the cover into the slots in the pillar trim cover.

Rear Storage Compartment

152 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

3. The liftgate may be opened with the cargo cover in place.

WARNING!

In an accident a cargo cover loose in the vehicle could cause injury. It could fly around in a sudden stop and strike someone in the vehicle. Do not store the cargo cover on the cargo floor or in the passenger compartment. Remove the cover from the vehicle when taken from its mounting. Do not store in the vehicle.

Rear Cargo Cover

Cargo Tie-Down Hooks The tie-downs located on cargo area floor should be used to safely secure loads when vehicle is moving.

Cargo Tie-Down Hooks

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 153

WARNING!

Cargo tie-down hooks are not safe anchors for a child seat tether strap. In a sudden stop or collision a hook could pull loose and allow the child seat to come loose. A child could be badly injured. Use only the anchors provided for child seat tethers.

WARNING!

The weight and position of cargo and passengers can change the vehicle center of gravity and vehicle handling. To avoid loss of control resulting in per- sonal injury, follow these guidelines for loading your vehicle:

154 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

• Do not carry loads which exceed the load limits described on the label attached to the left door or left door center pillar. Refer to “Vehicle Loading” in Sec- tion 5 for additional information on cargo weights. • Always place cargo evenly on the cargo floor. Put heavier objects as low and as far forward as possible. • Place as much cargo as possible in front of the rear axle. Too much weight or improperly placed weight over or behind the rear axle can cause the rear of the vehicle to sway. • Do not pile luggage or cargo higher than the top of the seatback. This could impair visibility or become a dangerous projectile in a sudden stop or collision.

WARNING!

To help protect against personal injury, passengers should not be seated in the rear cargo area. The rear cargo space is intended for load carrying purposes only, not for passengers, who should sit in seats and use seat belts.

Cargo Load Floor

The panel in the load floor is reversible for added utility. One side is carpeted and the other side features a plastic lined tray which holds a variety of items.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 155

1. Flip up pull loop(s) so they are perpendicular (straight up) to the top surface of the tray. 2. Pull up on loop(s) and twist 90 degrees, so they are parallel to the slotted hole in tray. 3. Lift tray over loop(s), and reposition tray. 4. Pull up on loop(s) and twist 90 degrees, so they are perpendicular (straight up) to the slotted hole in tray. 5. Push loop(s) back down, so they are parallel to the top of the tray.

Rear Window Wiper/Washer A switch on the right side of the steering column controls operation of the rear wiper/washer function. Rotating the center of the switch up to the DEL (Delay) position or the ON position will activate the wiper. Rotating the center of the switch all the way up or down will turn on

156 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

the wash function. The wash pump will continue to operate as long as the button is pressed. Upon release, the wipers will cycle three times before returning to the set position.

Rear Wiper/Washer Switch

If the rear wiper is operating when the ignition is turned OFF, the wiper will automatically return to the “Park” position. If the liftgate flipper glass is open, connection to the rear window wiper is interrupted preventing activation of the rear wiper blade. When the liftgate flipper glass is closed, the rear wiper switch or the ignition switch needs to be turned OFF and ON to restart the rear wiper. Adding Washer Fluid The fluid reservoir for the windshield washers and the rear window washer is shared. It is located in the front of the engine compartment on the passenger side and should be checked for fluid level at regular intervals. Fill the reservoir with windshield washer solvent (not radia- tor antifreeze) and operate the system for a few seconds to flush out the residual water.

ROOF LUGGAGE RACK — IF EQUIPPED External racks do not increase the total load carrying capacity of the vehicle. Be sure that the total occupant and luggage load inside the vehicle, plus the load on the luggage rack, do not exceed the rated vehicle capacity. This vehicle is not equipped with roof rack cross rails as built, unless ordered as optional equipment. Cross rails must be installed prior to carrying loads on the roof rack. If not equipped, your authorized dealer can order and install Mopar威 cross rails built specifically for this roof rack system or a number of after market rails that are tailored to your life-style or activities.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 157

NOTE: The optional cross rails have seven specific locations identified by a feature on both the side rail and the cross rail. Cross rails must be secured in one of the seven detent locations on the side rail to prevent move- ment with a sudden stop. For improved windnoise performance when cross rails are not in use, place them in detent positions #2 (second detent from the front of the vehicle) and #7 (detent closest to the rear of the vehicle) as indicated with a unique feature on the side rails.

158 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

CAUTION!

WARNING!

Cargo must be securely tied before driving your vehicle. Improperly secured loads can fly off the vehicle, particularly at high speeds, resulting in personal injury or property damage. Follow the roof rack “Cautions” when carrying cargo on your roof rack.

• To prevent damage to the roof of your vehicle, DO NOT

carry any loads on the roof rack without cross rails installed. The load should be secured and placed on top of the cross rails, not directly on the roof. If it is necessary to place the load on the roof, place a blanket or some other protection between the load and the roof surface.

• To avoid damage to the roof rack and vehicle, do not

exceed the rated load capacity of your cross rail system or the roof rack system maximum load capacity of 150
lbs (68 kg). Always distribute heavy loads as evenly as possible and secure the load appropriately.

• Long loads which extend over the windshield, such as

wood panels or surfboards, should be secured to both the front and rear of the vehicle.

• Travel at reduced speeds and turn corners carefully

when carrying large or heavy loads on the roof rack. Wind forces, due to natural causes or nearby truck traffic, can add sudden upward loads. This is especially true on large flat loads and may result in damage to the cargo or your vehicle.
