Make sure the liftgate door and/or window are closed to prevent
exhaust fumes from being drawn into the vehicle. This will also
reduce the risk of passengers and cargo falling out.

LUGGAGE RACK

Your vehicle is equipped with a roof
rack for transporting items on the
exterior of the vehicle. The
maximum recommended load to be
carried on the roof rack is 100 lb
(45 kg), evenly distributed. The
crossbars (if equipped) can be
adjusted by using the thumbwheels
at each end. Use the tie-down loops
on the thumbwheels to secure load.
To adjust cross-bar position (if
equipped):
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. Firmly retighten the thumbwheel
at both ends of the cross-bar.
Be sure to check that the thumbwheels are tight each time load is added
or removed from the roof rack, and periodically while traveling. Always
ensure that the load is secure before traveling.
Ford Motor Company recommends loading the roof rack only when
equipped with (optional) crossbars, to avoid unintended damage to the
roof panel.
Note: When the cross-bars are not in use, they can either be removed or
adjusted so that the rear crossbar is fully rearward, and the front
crossbar is 10 inches from the front end-cap to decrease wind noise.
