TRANSPORTING OBJECTS IN THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT
Always position the objects transported
so that the largest surface is against:
– the rear bench seatback, for normal
A
loading (example A);
1
1
– the front seatbacks with the rear seat-
B
backs folded down, as is the case for
maximum loads (example B).
Always position the heav-
iest items directly on the
floor.
Ensure that the objects being trans-
ported are evenly distributed throughout
the loading area.
Use the lashing points 1 on
the boot floor, if these are fitted to
the vehicle.
If you have to place objects on the folded
seatback, it is necessary that you lower
the headrests before folding the seat-
back so that it can be folded as flat as
possible against the seat.
The luggage should be loaded in
such a way that no items will be
thrown forward and strike the occu-
pants if the driver has to brake sud-
denly.
Note: in the absence of an emergency
spare wheel or tyre inflation kit, do not
load the bottom of the luggage compart-
ment.
Fasten the rear seat belts, even if
the seats are not occupied.
