Storage precautions
n
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in death or serious injury.
Do not place cargo or luggage in or on the following locations as the
l
item may get under the brake or accelerator pedal and prevent the
pedals from being depressed properly, block the driver's vision, or hit
the driver or passengers, causing an accident.
• Driver's feet
• Front passenger or rear seats (when stacking items)
• Instrument panel
• Dashboard
Secure all items in the occupant compartment, as they may shift and
l
injure someone during an accident or sudden braking.
Never allow anyone to ride in the trunk. It is not designed for passen-
l
gers. They should ride in their seats with their seat belts properly fas-
tened. Otherwise, they are much more likely to suffer death or serious
injury, in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
