Transporting Objects - Renault EXPRESS 2021 Vehicle User Manual

TRANSPORTING OBJECTS IN THE BOOT
Always position the objects trans-
ported so that the largest surface is
against:
– the rear bench seatbacks, for
normal loads (example: A);
– the front seatbacks with the rear
seatbacks folded down, as is the
case for maximum loads (exam-
ple B) ➥ 3.24.
If you have to place objects on the
folded seat back, it is vital that you
remove the headrests before folding the
seat back so that it can be folded as flat
as possible against the seat.
Always place objects being transported
so that the heaviest items are resting
against the back of the rear bench seat.

Always position the heavi-
est items directly on the
floor. Use the lashing points
on the luggage compart-
ment floor, if these are fitted to the
vehicle. The load 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 or while driving on a steep
gradient. Fasten the rear seat belts,
even if the seats are not occupied.
