& WARNING Risk of injury from unsecured
items in the vehicle
If objects, luggage or loads are not secured or
not secured sufficiently, they could slip, tip
over or be thrown around and thereby hit vehi-
cle occupants.
There is a risk of injury, particularly in the
event of sudden braking or a sudden change
in direction.
Always stow objects in such a way that
#
they cannot be thrown around.
Before the journey, secure objects, lug-
#
gage or loads against slipping or tipping
over.
Observe the notes on loading the vehicle.
