Cargo loads precautions
Caution
► Do not load cargo or luggage higher than the top of the seatback. Be sure
that your cargo or luggage cannot move once your vehicle is moving.
Having the driver’s vision blocked, and your cargo being thrown inside the cabin
if you suddenly have to brake can cause a serious accident or injury.
► Load heavy cargo or luggage in the front of the vehicle. If the load in the back
of the vehicle is too heavy, steering may become unstable.
