Carrying Items in the Passenger Area
●
All it
ems that could be thrown inwards
and thus injure occupants in case of a
collision must be properly placed and
secured.
●
Do not place any objects on the inner
side of rear windscreen. Otherwise,
these objects will block the driver's
line of sight and will be thrown here
and there inside the vehicle in case of
collision.
●
Ensure that items placed on the 󽗊oor
behind the front seat do not roll under
the seat, so as to avoid a󽗈ecting the
driver's ability to control the pedals or
normal seat adjustment. Do not stack
items to a height taller than the front
seats' seat backs.
●
Make sure the glove box is always
closed while driving. If the glove box
is open, the occupant's knees may be
injured in case of a collision or an
emergency stop.
REMINDER
●
Be careful with children's toys
inside the cabin, for these
may pose a hazard in case of
emergency braking or accidents.
Loading the Trunk
●
Plac
e luggage evenly in the trunk. Put
heavier items at the bottom and as far

●
Secure items with ropes or straps so
that they will not move while driving.
Do not stack items to a height taller
than seat backs.

ver stop, back up, or turn o󽗈 the

Be careful when driving through deep
water, as brakes may get wet. After
crossing over, press the brake pedal
several times to dry out the disks and
recover brake performance.
