■

Things that must not be carried in the luggage compartment

The following things may cause a fire if loaded in the luggage compartment:
● Receptacles containing gasoline
● Aerosol cans

Storage precautions

■
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may prevent the pedals from being depressed properly,
may block the driver's vision, or may result in items hitting the driver or pas-
sengers, possibly causing an accident.
Stow cargo and luggage in the luggage compartment whenever possible.
●
● Do not stack anything in the luggage compartment higher than the
seatbacks.
Do not place cargo or luggage in or on the following locations.
●
• At the feet of the driver
• On the front passenger or rear seats (when stacking items)
• On the instrument panel
• On the dashboard
Secure all items in the occupant compartment.
●
● When you fold down the rear seats, long items should not be place directly
behind the front seats.
Never allow anyone to ride in the luggage compartment. It is not designed
●
for passengers. They should ride in their seats with their seat belts prop-
erly fastened. Otherwise, they are much more likely to suffer death or seri-
ous bodily injury, in the event of a sudden braking, sudden swerving or an
accident.
■

Load and distribution

Do not overload your vehicle.
●
● Do not apply loads unevenly.
Improper loading may cause deterioration of steering or braking control
which may cause death or serious injury.
