CAUTION

For cargo carrying purposes, the bars must be used as crossbars and be used together with the genuine SUBARU carrying attachment.
The bars must never be used alone to carry cargo.
Otherwise, damage to the roof or paint or a dangerous road hazard due to loss of cargo could result.
When using the bars as crossbars, make sure that the total weight of the carrying attachment and cargo does not exceed the 150 lbs (67.5 kg). Overloading may cause damage to the vehicle and create a safety hazard.

The bars can be used as crossbars.

Cargo can be carried after setting the bars as crossbars and installing the genuine SUBARU carrying attachment.

When you carry cargo on the roof using the crossbars and a carrying attachment, never exceed the maximum load limit explained in the following.

The maximum load limit of the cargo and carrying attachment must not exceed the allowable load limit described in the Owner's Manual of a genuine SUBARU carrying attachment.
