A WARNING
- When driving, do not leave any hard ob-
jects on the rear window shelf or allow
your pet to sit on the shelf. They could
become a hazard for vehicle occupants in
the event of sudden braking or a crash.
- Always remove objects from the instru-
ment panel. Any items not stored could
slide around inside the vehicle while driv-
ing or when accelerating or when apply-
ing the brakes or when driving around a
corner.
- When you are driving make sure that
anything you may have placed in the cen-
ter console or other storage locat ions
cannot fal l out into the footwells. In case
of sudden braking you would not be able
to brake or accelerate.
- Any articles of clothing that you have
hung up must not interfere with the driv-
er's view. The coat hooks are designed
only for lightweight clothing. Never hang
any clothing with hard, pointed or heavy
objects in the pockets on the coat hooks.
During sudden braking or in an accident -
especially if the airbag is deployed -
these objects could injure any passen-
gers inside the vehicle.
- To reduce the risk of personal injury in an
accident or sudden stop, always keep the
glove compartment closed while driving.
- Read and follow all WARNINGS
c:> page 173, Important safety instruc-
tions on the side airbag system.
- Hang clothes in such a way that they do
not impair the driver's vision.
- The coat hooks must only be used for
lightweight clothing. Do not leave any
heavy or sharp edged objects in the pock-
ets which may interfere with the side cur-
tain airbag deployment and can cause
personal injury in a crash.
- Do not use coat hangers for hanging
clothing on the coat hooks as this can in-
terfere with proper deployment of the
side curta in airbags in an accident.
- Do not hang heavy objects on the coat
hooks, as they could cause personal in-
jury in a sudden stop.
@ Note
Objects located on the rear shelf that rub
against the rear window could damage the
heating wires for the rear window defog-
ger.

and the rear window. Do not block the
vent with any items you may place on the
rear window shelf.

dow shelf as they could restrict or block
