(Continued) • The vehicle center of gravity will be higher when items are loaded onto the roof rack. Avoid sudden starts, braking, sharp turns, abrupt maneuvers or high speeds that may result in loss of vehicle control or rollover resulting in an accident. • Always drive slowly and turn cor‐ ners carefully when carrying items on the roof rack. Severe wind up‐ drafts, caused by passing vehicles or natural causes, can cause sud‐ den upward pressure on items loa‐ ded on the roof rack. This is espe‐ cially true when carrying large, flat items such as wood panels or mat‐ tresses. This could cause the items to fall off the roof rack and cause damage to your vehicle or others around you. • To prevent damage or loss of car‐ go while driving, check frequently before or while driving to make sure the items on the roof rack are securely fastened.
