Loading
The handling characteristics of a fully
loaded vehicle depend greatly on the load
distribution. It is therefore recommended
to load the vehicle according to the illustra-
tions shown, with the heaviest items being
placed towards the front of the vehicle.
Please pay attention to and comply with
the following instructions when loading the
vehicle and transporting cargo:
ț Always place items being carried
against front or rear seat backrests,
and fasten them as securely as
possible.
ț The heaviest portion of the cargo
should always be kept as low as possi-
ble against front or rear seat backrests.
ț Always pad off sharp edges.
For additional safety when transporting
cargo while the rear seats are unoccupied,
fasten the outer seat belts crosswise into
the opposite side buckles.
Cargo tie-down rings
i
The cargo compartment is the preferred
place to carry objects. The expanded cargo com-
partment (
୴ page 206) should only be used for
items which do not fit in the cargo compartment
alone.
Warning! G
While the partition net* (୴ page 210) will
help protect you from smaller objects, it
cannot prevent the movement of large,
heavier objects into the passenger compart-
ment in an accident.
Such items must be properly secured using
the cargo tie-down rings in the cargo com-
partment floor.
