LOADING, STORAGE AND PASSENGER COMPARTMENT

Sun visors

There are sun visors in the roof in front of the
driver seat and the front seat passenger seat
which can be folded down and angled out to
the side when necessary.
The figure is schematic - the design may vary.
The mirror lighting* is switched on automati-
cally when the guard is lifted up.
The mirror frame incorporates a holder for e.g.
cards or tickets.

Cargo area

The car has a flexible cargo area that makes it
possible to transport and secure large
objects.
By folding down the backrests in the rear seat,
the cargo area can become quite spacious.
Use load retaining eyelets or bag holders to
secure the load, and the extendable cargo
cover* to conceal the load if desired.
If the car is equipped with a spare wheel then
this is attached on the cargo area floor. The
car's towing eye and puncture repair kit are
stored under the cargo area floor.

Recommendations for loading

There are a number of things that are impor-
tant to bear in mind when loading the car.
Payload depends on the car's kerb weight. The
total of the weight of the passengers and all
accessories reduces the car's payload by a
corresponding weight.
WARNING
The car's driving properties change
depending on the weight and positioning
of the load.
Loading in the cargo area
Good things to remember when loading:
Position the load firmly against the rear
•
seat's backrest.
Heavy objects should be placed as low as
•
possible. Avoid placing heavy loads on
lowered backrests.
Cover sharp edges with something soft to
•
avoid damaging the upholstery.
Secure all loads to the load retaining eye-
•
lets with straps or web lashings.
WARNING
A loose object weighing 20 kg (44 pounds)
can, in a frontal collision at a speed of
50 km/h (30 mph) carry the impact of an
item weighing 1000 kg (2200 pounds).
* Option/accessory.
