Baggage Compartment
The baggage compartment door, located on the left side of the
fuselage aft of the wing, allows entry to the baggage compartment.
The baggage door is hinged on the forward edge and latched on the
rear edge. The door is locked from the outside with a key lock. The
baggage compartment key will also open the cabin doors.
The baggage compartment extends from behind the rear passenger
seat to the aft cabin bulkhead. The rear seats can be folded forward to
provide additional baggage area for long or bulky items.
Four baggage tie-down straps are provided to secure baggage and
other items loaded in the baggage compartment. Each strap assembly
has a hook at each end and a cam-lock buckle in the middle. The hook
ends clip over loop fittings installed in the baggage floor and in the aft
bulkhead. The tie-down straps should be stowed attached and
tightened to the fittings.
• Caution •
If not adequately restrained, baggage compartment items may
pose a projectile hazard to cabin occupants in the event of
rapid deceleration. Secure all baggage items with tie-down
straps.

1. Position straps over baggage. Thread straps through luggage
handles if possible.
2. Clip hook ends of straps over loop fittings.
3. Grasp the buckle and pull the loose strap end of each strap to
tighten straps over contents of baggage compartment.
To loosen tie-down straps:
1. Lift buckle release and pull on buckle to loosen strap.
