Securing straps that are incorrectly fastened, unsuitable or damaged may become 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.

● Always use suitable and undamaged lashing straps or securing straps.

● Attach securing straps securely to the fastening rings.

● Load the fastening rings evenly.

● Never fix lashing straps or securing straps between the fastening rings in the side panel and the fastening rings in

the vehicle floor.

● Never fix lashing straps or securing straps between opposite side walls.

● Never load the lashing straps and securing straps beyond their load rating.

● If necessary, observe the information sign on the side trim.

● 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 sturdy 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.

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.
