CAUTION
 Storage precautions
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in death or serious injury.
 Do not place cargo or luggage in or on the following locations as the item
may get under the clutch, brake or accelerator pedal and prevent the ped-
als from being depressed properly, block the driver's vision, or hit the
driver or passengers, causing an accident.
• Driver's feet
• Front passenger or rear seats (when stacking items)
• Package tray (sedan)
• Luggage cover (wagon)
• Instrument panel
• Dashboard
• Auxiliary box or tray that has no lid
 Secure all items in the occupant compartment, as they may shift and injure
someone during sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
 Never allow anyone to ride in the enlarged trunk or luggage compartment.
It is not designed for passengers. They should ride in their seats with their
seat belts properly fastened. Otherwise, they are much more likely to suf-
fer death or serious injury, in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerv-
ing or an accident.
