Driver Controls 2. The smaller compartment contains the jack kit. There is also extra storage space for customer use. The lid on the small compartment is accessible and secured by two snap features. WARNING: This storage compartment is not designed to restrain objects during a collision with the lid removed. Passenger side cargo compartment Your vehicle is equipped with a passenger side cargo compartment located in the right rear trim panel which is used to store small items and may have the Easy Fuel™ white plastic funnel attached on the inside of the access door. Make sure the access door is secured so it does not rattle when you drive. LUGGAGE RACK (IF EQUIPPED) Your vehicle may be equipped with a roof rack. The maximum load for the roof rack is 100 lb (45 kg), evenly distributed on the cross-bars. If it is not possible to evenly distribute the load, position it in the center or as far forward on the cross-bars as possible. Do not use the vehicle's door handles as tie down loops. Use the tie-down loops on the thumbwheels to secure load. To adjust the cross-bar (if equipped) position: 1. Loosen the thumbwheel at both ends of the cross-bar (both cross-bars are adjustable). 2. Slide the cross-bar to the desired location. 3. Tighten the thumbwheel at both ends of the cross-bar. 81 2009 Mariner (mrn) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)
