Cargo Net - Volvo V40 Owner's Manual

Cargo net*

A cargo net prevents cargo from being thrown
forward in the passenger compartment in the
event of heavy braking.
The cargo net is fitted into four mounting points.
For safety reasons, the cargo net must always be
correctly fastened and secured. The mesh is
made of a strong nylon fabric and secured
behind the front seat backrests.
WARNING
Loads in the luggage compartment must be
anchored well, and also have a correctly fitted
safety net.
Attaching
NOTE
The easiest way to fit the safety net is via one
of the rear doors.
WARNING
It is necessary to ensure that the upper secur-
ing points of the safety net are fitted correctly
and that the puller-straps are secured prop-
erly. Damaged nets must not be used.
LOADING AND STORAGE
1. Hook the hooks into the roof mounting with
the anchoring strap locks turned towards
you.
Thread the cargo net's anchoring straps
through the eyes on the rear of the seat slide
rails - it is easier if the backrests are straight-
ened and the seats are moved forward
slightly.
Pay attention to make sure that you do not
press the seat/backrest hard against the net
when the seat/backrest is moved back again
- only adjust until the seat/backrest makes
contact with the net.
IMPORTANT
If a seat/backrest is pushed backwards hard
into the safety net then the net and/or its
roof mounts may be damaged.
