ROOF LUGGAGE RACK — IF EQUIPPED

The crossbars and siderails are designed to carry the

weight on vehicles equipped with a luggage rack. The

load must not exceed 150 lbs (68 kg), and should be

uniformly distributed over the luggage rack crossbars.
NOTE:

If not equipped with crossbars, your authorized

dealer can order and install MOPAR® crossbars built

specifically for this roof rack system.
Distribute cargo weight evenly on the roof rack crossbars.

The roof rack does not increase the total load carrying

capacity of the vehicle. Be sure the total load of cargo

inside the vehicle plus that on the external rack does not

exceed the maximum vehicle load capacity.
To move the crossbars, loosen the attachments, located at

the upper edge of each crossbar, approximately eight

turns using the anti-theft wrench provided with the

MOPAR® crossbars. Then, move the crossbar to the

desired position, keeping the crossbars parallel to the

rack frame. Once the crossbar is in the desired position,

retighten the with the wrench to lock the crossbar into

position.
NOTE:

• To help control wind noise when the crossbars are not

in use, place the front and rear crossbars approxi-

mately 24 in (61 cm) apart. Optimal noise reduction

can then be achieved by adjusting the front crossbar

forward or aft using increments of 1 in (2.5 cm).
