Cargo Tie-Down Loops

There are four tie-downs (D-rings) installed in
the cargo area for securing cargo.
Cargo Area Tie-Downs
WARNING!
• Cargo tie-down loops are not safe anchors
for a child seat tether strap. In a sudden
stop or collision a loop could pull loose and
allow the child seat to come loose. A child
could be badly injured. Use only the an-
chors provided for child seat tethers.
WARNING! (Continued)
• The weight and position of cargo and
passengers can change the vehicle center
of gravity and vehicle handling. To avoid
loss of control resulting in personal injury,
follow these guidelines for loading your
vehicle:
• Always place cargo evenly on the cargo
floor. Put heavier objects as low and as far
forward as possible.
• Place as much cargo as possible in front of
the rear axle. Too much weight or improp-
erly placed weight over or behind the rear
axle can cause the rear of the vehicle to
sway.
• Do not pile luggage or cargo higher than
the top of the seatback. This could impair
visibility or become a dangerous projectile
in a sudden stop or collision.
