WARNING
Incorrectly fastened securing straps may get detached in the event of a sudden braking manoeuvre or accident. This
could cause objects to be flung through the interior and lead to severe or fatal injuries.
● Never fix securing straps between the fastening rings in the side panel and the fastening rings in the vehicle floor.
● Never fix securing straps between opposite side walls.
● Never use elastic straps or nets to tie down loads.
● Ensure that the load retains its form and position once it has been secured. Use stable packaging and anti-slip
floor surfacing for your load.
WARNING
When the vehicle is not in use or is not being supervised, always lock the doors to reduce the risk of severe or fatal
injuries.
● Never leave children unattended, especially when the boot lid is open. Children could make their way into the
luggage compartment, close the boot lid and be unable to get out. This can cause severe or fatal injuries.
● Never let children play in or around the vehicle.
● Never drive with people in the luggage compartment.
NOTICE
Items that rub against the rear windows can damage or destroy the heating wires.
Suitable lashing, retaining or securing straps and load securing systems are available from specialist retailers.
Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles recommends using a Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles dealership for this
purpose.
