TRANSPORTING OBJECTS IN THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT
Always position the objects trans-
ported so that the largest surface is
against:
– the rear seatbacks, for normal
loads;
– the rear seats (folded down), for
bulky loads;
– the front seats for maximum loads.
Always position the heaviest items di-
rectly on the floor.
Always position the heavi-
est items directly on the
floor.
Use the lashing points on
the luggage compartment floor, if
these are fitted to the vehicle.
The luggage should be loaded in
such a way that no items will be
thrown forward and strike the occu-
pants if the driver has to brake sud-
denly.
Fasten the rear seat belts, even if
the seats are not occupied.
