STARTING AND OPERATING 169 CAUTION! • To prevent damage to the roof of your vehicle, DO NOT carry any loads on the roof luggage rack which may come in contact with the roof panel. The load should be secured and placed on top of the rack, not directly on the roof. If it is necessary to place some part of 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 luggage rack and vehicle, do not exceed the rated load capacity of your roof luggage rack system maximum load capacity. 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 carefully 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 luggage 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. 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 luggage rack "Cautions" when carrying cargo on your roof rack. 5 TRAILER TOWING Trailer towing with your Crossfire is not recommended.
