ROOF RACK
Do not apply any load directly to the roof
side rails. Cross bars must be installed before
applying load/cargo/luggage to the roof of
the vehicle. Genuine INFINITI accessory
cross bars are available through an INFINITI
retailer. It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for additional information.
The service load capacity for the roof side
rails is 221 lb (100 kg), however do not
exceed the accessory cross bars load capa-
city.
Be careful that your vehicle does not exceed
the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or
its Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR front
and rear). The GVWR and GAWR are
located on the F.M.V.S.S. or C.V.M.S.S.
certification label (located on the driver’s
door pillar). For additional information re-
garding GVWR and GAWR, refer to “Vehicle
loading information” (P.10-15).
WARNING
.
Always install the cross bars onto the
roof side rails before loading cargo of
any kind. Loading cargo directly onto
the roof side rails or the vehicle’s roof
may cause vehicle damage.
.
Drive extra carefully when the vehicle
is loaded at or near the cargo carrying
capacity, especially if the significant
portion of that load is carried on the
roof rack.
.
Heavy loading of the roof rack has
the potential to affect the vehicle
stability and handling during sudden
or unusual handling maneuvers.
.
Roof rack load should be evenly
distributed.
.
Do not exceed maximum roof rack
load weight capacity.
.
Properly secure all cargo with ropes
or straps to help prevent it from
sliding or shifting. In a sudden stop
or collision, unsecured cargo could
cause personal injury.
