Load anchoring eyelets
The load anchoring eyelets on both sides of the
vehicle are used to fasten straps, etc., to help
anchor items in the cargo area.
WARNING

Cover sharp edges on long loads to help
prevent injury to occupants. Secure the
load to help prevent shifting during sud-
den stops.
•
Always secure large and heavy objects
with a seat belt or cargo retaining
straps.
•
Always secure the load to help prevent
it from moving in the event of sudden
stops.

05 During your trip
The floor of the cargo compartment has rails
on opposite sides of the vehicle equipped with
hooks for anchoring loads with straps, nets,
etc.
Cleaning the rails
Dirt or other small objects that collect in the
rails can make moving, locking, unlocking, and
removing the hooks more difficult. Objects can
be removed from the rails with a vacuum
cleaner, and the rails can be cleaned with a
moist cloth.
Moving the load anchoring hooks
To move a hook, fold it down in the direc-
tion in which its opening points.
Press the hook down lightly and move it to
the desired position.
