the occupants and the cargo.
The greater the weight of the occupants, the
less cargo that can be transported.

Stowing cargo
▷
▷
Smaller and lighter items: secure with re‐
taining straps, a cargo net* or draw straps.
▷
Very heavy cargo: when the rear seat is not
occupied, secure each of the outer safety
belts in the opposite buckle.
Larger and heavy objects: secure with cargo
straps*.
Cargo straps can be attached to four lashing
eyes located in the cargo area.

▷
Cover sharp edges and corners.
Heavy cargo: stow as far forward and as low
as possible, ideally directly behind the rear
seat.
The cargo area package* makes additional
lashing eyes available.
Securing cargo
▷
▷
If necessary, fold down the rear backrests to
stow cargo.
Always position and secure the cargo as
described above; otherwise, it can endanger the
car's occupants if sudden braking or swerving
becomes necessary.
Use the partition net, refer to page 112, to
protect passengers. Make sure that objects
cannot penetrate the partition net.
Heavy or hard objects should not be carried
loose inside the car; otherwise, they could be
thrown around as a result of hard braking, sud‐
den swerves, etc., and endanger the occu‐
pants.◀
Place protective material around any sharp-
edged or pointed objects that could bump
against the rear window while the vehicle is
in motion.
