If you travel in areas with few filling stations
and you want to transport fuel in a spare
tank, comply with the regulations in force and
use only an approved, suitably secured tank. Any-
way, by doing so, you increase the risk of fire in case
of an accident with your vehicle.
Be careful not to hit objects on the storage
shelf when you open the tailgate.
Never exceed the maximum allowed load in
the luggage compartment; see chapter 6. Al-
so make sure that the objects you place in the
luggage compartment have been properly secured,
to avoid them from being thrown forward conse-
quent to sudden braking and injuring your passen-
gers. Never travel with the tailgate open: exhaust
gases may get into the passenger’s compartment.
