warning

Do not place any heavy or hard objects on the luggage cover. These may pose a risk to the vehicle occupants if the driver has to brake suddenly or if the vehicle is involved in an accident.

Transporting objects in the luggage compartment

Always position the objects transported so that the largest surface is against:

the rear bench seatbacks, for normal loading (example A);

the front seatbacks with the rear seatbacks folded down, as is the case for maximum loads (example B) Rear bench seat: functions.

Ensure that the objects being transported are evenly distributed throughout the loading area.

If you have to place objects on the folded seat back, it is vital that you remove the headrests before folding the seat back so that it can be folded as flat as possible against the seat.

warning

Always position the heaviest items directly on the floor. Use the lashing points on the luggage compartment floor, if these are fitted to the vehicle. The load should be loaded in such a way that no items will be thrown forward and strike the occupants if the driver has to brake suddenly or while driving on a steep gradient. Fasten the rear seat belts, even if the seats are not occupied.

Transporting objects in the rear load area

Depending on the vehicle, fixed rings 1 and rotary rings 2 can be used to retain objects during transportation. The number of rings and their position may vary depending on the vehicle.

tip

The sole purpose of these rings 1 is to prevent transported objects from moving. The objects must be secured to the mounting rings 2 on the vehicle floor beforehand.

Fmax : 400 daN

While driving with the right rear hinged door open, always secure transported loads. The left-hand door, which remains shut, should not be used to hold transported loads in place. Using the right rear hinged door open while driving should only be done in exceptional cases.

In any event, please refer to local legislation. Risk of loads falling on the road surface.
