WARNING
WARNING
Load opening:
• Never place any objects on top of the
rear parcel shelf. In the event of a col-
lision, unsecuredcargo may present a
safety hazard and cause personal
injuries to vehicle occupants.
Always secure a load properly. You can,
for example, use the hip strap in the
center rear safety belt. This will reduce
the risk of having the load thrown about
during a collision and causing personal
injury.
• Do not obstruct outward vision or the
ability to exit the vehicle when loading
the vehicle.
Trunk:
When the rear seat backrest is placed
upright after having been folded for-
ward, ensure that all rear safety belts
are accessible and properly routed.
Lay heavy suitcases flat on the floor.
Then place smaller and lighter items of
luggage on top.
Tie downs
Four tie downs for securing the load are
fitted inside the trunk. Place the load as far
in as possible.
Always secure heavy, bulky loads to the
four tie downs in the trunk. This will
reduce risk of having them thrown about
during heavy braking or during a collision
and causing personal injury. When the
backrest is lowered, narrow objects can
also be thrown around and cause injury.
You should thus secure them well.
Make sure that tire pressures are
properly adjusted in accordance with
altered vehicle weight (refer to tire
pressures in the Specifications sec-
tion of this manual).
Trunk lighting
To the left in the trunk is a light which goes
on and off when the trunk lid is opened and
closed.
The lighting can also be turned on and off
using the button on the light housing. If the
trunk lid is left open, the lighting will go off
after 20 minutes to prevent the battery from
being drained.
To retain the car’s safe normal handling
characteristics,youmustbe  carefulnotto
exceed its maximum load capacity, (see
page 220).
