Cargo tie-down rings

Cargo tie-down rings are only available on the

Four cargo tie-down rings are located in the
trunk.
Carefully secure cargo by applying even load
on all rings with rope of sufficient strength to
hold down the cargo.
Always follow loading instructions
( Y page 198).
Split rear seat bench (coupe)
To expand the cargo volume, you can fold
down the left and right rear seat backrests.
The two sections can be folded down
separately.
G Warning!
When expanding the cargo volume, always
fold the seat cushions fully forward.
Unless you are transporting cargo, the seat
backrests must remain properly locked in
the upright position.
In an accident, during hard braking or
sudden maneuvers, loose items will be
thrown around inside the vehicle, and
cause injury to vehicle occupants unless
the items are securely fastened in the
vehicle.
Always use the cargo tie-down rings.
