als from being depressed properly,
may block the driver’s vision, or may
result in items hitting the driver or

dent.
●
Stow cargo and luggage in the lug-
gage compartment whenever pos-
sible.
●
Do not stack cargo and luggage in
the luggage compartment higher
than the seatbacks.
●
When you fold down the rear seats,
long items should not be placed
directly behind the front seats.

Never allow anyone to ride in the
luggage compartment. It is not
designed for passengers. They
should ride in their seats with their
seat belts properly fastened.

Do not place cargo or luggage in or
on the following locations.

• On the instrument panel
• On the dashboard
●
Secure all items in the occupant
compartment.
■
Load and distribution
●
Do not overload your vehicle.
●
Do not apply loads unevenly.
Improper loading may cause deterio-
ration of steering or braking control
which may cause death or serious
injury.
■
When using a roof luggage car-
rier (vehicles with roof rails)
Observe the following precautions:
●
Place the cargo so that its weight is
distributed evenly between the front

If loading long or wide cargo, never
exceed the vehicle overall length or
width. (

Before driving, make sure the cargo
is securely fastened on the roof lug-
gage carrier.

Loading cargo on the roof luggage
carrier will make the center of grav-
ity of the vehicle higher. Avoid high
speeds, sudden starts, sharp turns,
sudden braking or abrupt maneu-
vers, otherwise it may result in loss
of control or vehicle rollover due to
failure to operate this vehicle cor-
rectly and result in death or serious
injury.
●
If driving for a long distance, on
rough roads, or at high speeds,
stop the vehicle now and then dur-
ing the trip to make sure the cargo
remains in its place.
●
Do not exceed 75 kg (165 lb.) cargo
weight on the roof luggage carrier.
