WARNING
Never allow a person to ride in the
luggage compartment:
Allowing a person to ride in the
luggage compartment is dangerous.
The person in the luggage
compartment could be seriously injured
or killed during sudden braking or a
collision.
Do not drive with the liftgate open:
Exhaust gas in the cabin of a vehicle
is dangerous. An open liftgate in a
moving vehicle will cause exhaust gas
to be drawn into the cabin. This gas
contains CO (carbon monoxide), which
is colourless, odourless, and highly
poisonous, and it can cause loss of
consciousness and death. Moreover, an
open liftgate could cause occupants to
fall out in an accident.
Do not stack or leave loaded
luggage unsecured in the luggage
compartment:
Otherwise, the luggage may move
or collapse, resulting in injury or an
accident. In addition, do not load
luggage higher than the seatbacks. It
may affect the side or rear fi eld of view.

Placing luggage or other cargo on top
of the luggage compartment cover is
dangerous. During sudden braking
or a collision, the cargo could become
a projectile that could hit and injure
someone. The vehicle has a light

accident such as a rollover. Tie down
all heavy objects, whether luggage or
cargo, using the tie down hooks.

secured before driving:
Not securing cargo while driving
is dangerous as it could move or be
crushed during sudden braking or a
collision and cause injury.
CAUTION
Make sure the luggage compartment
cover is fi rmly secured. If it is not
fi rmly secured, it could unexpectedly
disengage resulting in injury. The luggage compartment can be accessed
by opening the liftgate when the straps are
attached to the sides of the liftgate.
