– Secure luggage in the luggage compartment with suitable straps
on the fastening rings.
WARNING
Loose luggage and other loose items in the vehicle can cause serious
injuries.
Loose objects in the luggage compartment can suddenly move and
change the way the vehicle handles.
During sudden manoeuvres or accidents, loose objects in the
passenger compartment can be flung forward, injuring vehicle occupants.
Always store objects in the luggage compartment and secure with suit-
able straps. This is especially important for heavy objects.
When you transport heavy objects, always keep in mind that a change
in the centre of gravity can also cause changes in vehicle handling.
Please observe information on safe driving ⇒ page 7, "Safe driving".
Caution
Hard objects on the shelf could chafe against the wires of the heating
element in the rear window and cause damage.
Note
The ventilation slots in front of the rear side windows must not be covered as
this would prevent stale air being extracted from the vehicle.
