ROOF RACKS AND LOAD
CARRIERS (IF EQUIPPED)
Stowing the Luggage Cover
The luggage cover can be stowed in the
luggage compartment.
WARNING: When loading the roof
racks, we recommend you evenly
distribute the load, as well as maintain
a low center of gravity. Loaded vehicles,
with higher centers of gravity, may
handle differently than unloaded
vehicles. Take extra precautions, such
as slower speeds and increased stopping
distance, when driving a heavily loaded
vehicle.
Installing the Luggage Cover
1. Insert the luggage cover.
For correct roof rack system function, you
must place loads directly on crossbars
affixed to the roof rack side rails. When
using the roof rack system, we recommend
you use Ford Genuine Accessory crossbars
designed specifically for your vehicle.
E309672
Make sure that you securely fasten the
load. Check the tightness of the load
before driving and at each fuel stop.
2. Attach the retaining cord to the
luggage compartment trim panel.
Note: Never place loads directly on the roof
panel. The roof panel is not designed to
directly carry a load.
