(when stacking items)
• On the luggage cover
• On the instrument panel
• On the dashboard
Secure all items in the occupant com-
partment.
Load and distribution
Do not overload your vehicle.
Do not apply loads unevenly.
Improper loading may cause deteriora-
tion of steering or braking control which
may cause death or serious injury.
When using a roof luggage carrier
(vehicles with roof rails)
Observe the following precautions:
Place the cargo so that its weight is dis-
tributed evenly between the front and
rear axles.
If loading long or wide cargo, never
exceed the vehicle overall length or
width. (P.470)
Before driving, make sure the cargo is
securely fastened on the roof luggage
carrier.
Loading cargo on the roof luggage
carrier will make the center of gravity
of the vehicle higher. Avoid high
speeds, sudden starts, sharp turns,
sudden braking or abrupt maneuvers,
otherwise it may result in loss of con-
trol or vehicle rollover due to failure to
operate this vehicle correctly and
result in death or serious injury.
