Luggage compartment in the rear
G Warning!
Secure all pieces of luggage in the rear with
the luggage straps. Unsecured pieces of
luggage can otherwise cause injury during
a braking maneuver and can increase the
risk of injury in an accident.
Never allow anyone to ride in the rear.
The luggage straps can only secure light
luggage items. Carry heavy pieces of lug-
gage in the trunk.
The rear compartment area is not designed
or intended to accommodate occupants.
Severe personal injury or death may be the
result in an accident.
G Warning!
The shelf below the rear window should not
be used to carry objects. This will avoid
such objects from being thrown about and
injuring vehicle occupants during an acci-
dent or sudden maneuver.
The trunk is the preferred place to carry
objects.
