compart-

ment

cover:

The

luggage

compartment

cov-

er

must

always

be

securely

fastened

when

in

use

to

reduce

the

risk

of

an

accident.

—

Loose

objects

can

be

thrown

around

the

ve-

hicle

interior

during

sudden

driving

or

brak-

ing

maneuvers,

which

increases

the

risk

of

an

accident.

Always

stow

objects

securely

in

the

luggage

compartment

and

secure

them

at

the

tie-downs.

Use

straps

suitable

for

heavy

objects.

—

If

pieces

of

luggage

or

objects

are

secured

to

the

tie-downs

with

unsuitable

or

dam-

aged

straps,

this

can

increase

the

risk of

in-

jury

during

braking

maneuvers

or

accidents.

—

When

transporting

heavy

objects,

the

vehi-

cle

characteristics

will

change

due

to

the

shift

in

the

center

of

gravity,

which

increases

the

risk

of

an

accident.

You

may

need

to

adapt

your

driving

style

and

speed

to

the

current

conditions.

—

The

cargo

net*

is

only

strong

enough

to

se-

cure

light

objects.

Heavy

objects

are

not

ade-

quately secured.

Attempting

to

secure

heavy

objects

increases

the

risk

of

injury.

partment

This

creates

the

risk

of

fatal

injury,

locked

in

and

may

not

be

able

to

escape

by

themselves.
