Securing cargo  
Stow and secure the cargo as described;  
otherwise it may present a danger to the occu‐  
pants, e.g., during braking and evasive maneu‐  
vers.◀  
Smaller and lighter items: secure with re‐  
taining straps or with a cargo net or draw  
straps.  
Larger and heavy objects: secure with  
cargo straps.  
The maximum load is the sum of the weight of  
the occupants and the cargo.  
Cargo straps, cargo netting, retaining straps or  
draw straps on the lashing eyes in the trunk.  
The greater the weight of the occupants, the  
less cargo that can be transported.  
Stowing cargo  
Cover sharp edges and corners on the  
cargo.  
Heavy cargo: stow as far forward as possi‐  
ble, directly behind and at the bottom of  
the rear passenger seat backrests.  
Very heavy cargo: when the rear seat is not  
occupied, secure each of the outer safety  
belts in the opposite buckle.  
Securing cargo  
Lashing eyes in the trunk  
To secure the cargo there are four lashing  
eyes in the cargo area.
