& WARNING Risk of injury due to an open
cargo compartment floor
If you drive when the cargo compartment
floor is open, objects could be thrown around
and thereby strike vehicle occupants. There
is a risk of injury, particularly in the event of
sudden braking or a sudden change in direc‐
tion.
Always close the cargo compartment
#
floor before a journey.
To open: pull handle 1 upwards.

Attaching the roof carrier
& WARNING Risk of injury if the maximum
roof load is exceeded
When you load the roof, the center of gravity
of the vehicle rises and the usual driving
characteristics as well as the steering and
braking characteristics change. During cor‐
nering, the vehicle tilts more strongly and
may react more sluggishly to steering move‐
ments.
If you exceed the maximum roof load, the
driving characteristics, as well as the steer‐
ing and braking characteristics, will be
greatly impaired.
Always comply with the maximum roof
#
load and adjust your driving style.
You will find information on the maximum roof
load in the "Technical data" section.
