G Warning!
Always fasten items being carried as
securely as possible using cargo tie-down
rings and fastening materials appropriate
for the weight and size of the load.
In an accident, during hard braking or
sudden maneuvers, loose items will be
thrown around inside the vehicle and can
cause injury to vehicle occupants unless
the items are securely fastened in the
vehicle.
To help avoid personal injury during a
collision or sudden maneuver, exercise
care when transporting cargo. Do not pile
luggage or cargo higher than the seat
backrests.
The cargo compartment is the preferred
place to carry objects. Always use cargo tie-
down rings, and if so equipped, always use
the cargo net when transporting cargo.
Never drive vehicle with the tailgate open.
Deadly carbon monoxide (CO) gases may
enter vehicle interior resulting in
