All luggage and other objects must be safely secured in the luggage compartment. To maintain safe handling on the road, please observe the following points:
Distribute the load evenly in the luggage compartment.
Place heavy items as far forward as possible in the luggage compartment and secure them properly Fig. 290►.
Secure the load with the luggage net* or with non-elastic straps secured to the fastening rings link► or with the load retention set* link►.
WARNING
  • Loose items in the luggage compartment are a safety hazard: they can move suddenly and impair the handling of the vehicle as a result of the change in weight distribution.
  • In an accident or a sudden manoeuvre, loose objects in the passenger compartment can be flung forward – risk of injury! Always stow objects safely in the luggage compartment and secure them on the fastening rings. Use suitable securing straps, particularly when transporting heavy objects.
  • Transporting heavy objects may affect the vehicle s handling by shifting the centre of gravity – this could cause an accident. Take extra care when driving and adjust your speed accordingly.
  • Never exceed the maximum axle loads or the maximum gross weight for the vehicle link►. Exceeding the permitted axle loads or gross weight limit can affect the vehicle s handling characteristics, and increase the risk of accidents, personal injuries or damage to the vehicle.
  • Never leave your vehicle unattended when the boot lid is open. Children could climb into the boot and close the boot lid from the inside. In this case the child would be unable to get out of the vehicle without help. This could have fatal consequences.
  • Never allow children to play in or around the vehicle. Always close and lock the boot lid and all the doors when you leave the vehicle.
  • Never let passengers ride in the luggage compartment. All occupants must be properly restrained by the seat belts at all times link►.
CAUTION
  • Make sure that no hard objects chafe against the wires of the heating element in the rear window and damage them.
  • If you are transporting large items with the backrest folded down*, you should remove the Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE)* and its holder* to avoid damage.
Note
  • The tyre pressure must be adjusted according to the load the vehicle is carrying link►.
  • Air circulation in the vehicle helps reduce fogging of the windows. Used air escapes through ventilation slots in the rear of the vehicle. Make sure that these ventilation slots are not obstructed.
  • Suitable belts for securing loads to the fastening rings are commercially available.
