Stowing cargo
▷ Heavy cargo: stow as far forward and as low as possible, ideally directly behind the cargo area separating wall.
▷ Very heavy cargo: when the rear seat is not occupied, secure each of the outer safety belts in the opposite buckle.
▷ Cover sharp edges and corners.
▷ If necessary, fold down the rear backrests to stow cargo.
▷ Do not stack cargo above the top edge of the backrests.
▷ Place protective material around any sharpedged or pointed objects that could bump against the rear window while the vehicle is in motion.
