Loading the cargo compartment
The seat belts and airbags provide the driver
and passengers substantial protection,
especially in head-on collisions. But, you must
also remember to protect yourself from injuries
from behind. When loading cargo, bear in mind
that improperly secured or incorrectly loaded
objects in the cargo compartment could be
thrown forward with great speed and force in
the event of a collision or sudden braking,
causing serious injuries.
Bear in mind that if an object weighing 20 kg is
subjected to a head-on collision at a speed of 50
km/h, its impact weight will be 1000 kg.
Think about the following when loading:
Place the load by the backrest.
Position heavy loads as low as possible.
Position wide loads on each side of the
division in the backrest.
Secure the load with retaining straps
using the cars lashing eyes.
Never load above the backrest without a
load net.
WARNING!
Do not load extremely heavy objects
up by the front seats. The lowered
backrest will be pressed down unnec-
essarily hard.
Never load cargo above the backrests!
If you do so, the load could be thrown
forward in the event of sudden
braking or a collision and severely
injure you or your passengers.
Remember to always secure (bind) the
load properly.
If the rear seat backrest is lowered, do
not load the car higher than 50 mm
under the top edge of the rear
passenger windows. Leave 10 cm of
free space from the windows inwards.
Otherwise, the intended protection of
the inflatable curtain, which is hidden
in the headlining, may be compro-
mised.
WARNING!
Always secure the load. During heavy
braking the load may otherwise shift,
causing personal injury.
Cover sharp edges with something
soft.
Turn off the engine and apply the
parking brake when loading or
unloading long objects! You may
accidentally knock the gear lever or
gear selector with the load and cause a
gear to engage and the car to move
off.
