• If you need to carry long items, move the crossrails as far apart as they will go. Tie the load to the crossrails and the siderails or siderail supports. Also tie the load to the bumpers. Do not tie the load so tightly that the crossrails or siderails are damaged. Cargo Cover Panels {CAUTION: Improperly stored cargo cover panels could be thrown about the vehicle during a collision or sudden maneuver. You or others could be injured. If you remove a panel, always store it in the proper storage location. When you put it back, always be sure that is securely reattached. Notice: Exceeding the weight limit of 250 lbs (113 kg) can damage the cargo covers, and the repairs would not be covered by your warranty. Do not put anything on top of the cargo covers over the weight limit. Your vehicle may be equipped with a three-piece cargo cover system. The cargo panels can be removed and stored in the cargo area of the vehicle with the cargo panel storage bag. • After moving a crossrail, be sure it is securely locked into the siderail. Your vehicle has a Center High-Mounted Stoplamp (CHMSL) located above the rear glass. If items are loaded on the roof of the vehicle, care should be taken not to block or damage the CHMSL unit. Rear Storage Area Your vehicle is equipped with a rear armrest/cupholder for the rear seat passengers. To open it, pull up and then out on the tab, located at the top center of the armrest, and pull the armrest down. 2-64
