Please observe the following for the purpose of maintaining good handling
characteristics of your vehicle:
›
Distribute loads as evenly as possible.
›
Place heavy objects as far forward as possible.
›
Attach the items of luggage to the lashing eyes or using the fixing
net
In the event of an accident, even small and light objects gain so much kinetic
energy that they can cause severe injuries.
The magnitude of the kinetic energy is dependent on the speed at which the
vehicle is travelling and the weight of the object.
Example: In the event of a frontal collision at a speed of 50 km/h, an object
weighing 4.5 kg produces energy corresponding to 20 times its own weight.
This means that it results in a weight of approx. 90 kg " ".
WARNING
Store the objects in the boot and attach them to the lashing eyes.
■
Loose objects can be thrown forward during a sudden manoeuvre or in
■
case of an accident and can injure the occupants or other road users.
Loose objects could hit a deployed airbag and injure occupants – there is
■
a risk of death.
Please note that transporting heavy objects alters the handling proper-
» Fig. 60 -  and pull ■
ties of the vehicle due to the displacement of the centre of gravity – risk of
accident! The speed and style of driving must be adjusted accordingly.
If the items of luggage or objects are attached to the lashing eyes with
■
unsuitable or damaged lashing straps, injuries can occur in the event of
braking manoeuvres or accidents. To prevent items of luggage from being
thrown forward, always use suitable lashing straps which must be firmly at-
tached to the lashing eyes.
The transported items must be stowed in such a way that no objects are
■
able to slip forward on sudden driving or braking manoeuvres – risk of in-
jury!
71
When transporting fastened objects which are sharp and dangerous in
■
71
the boot that has been enlarged by folding the rear seats forward, ensure
71
