seats. The zipper allows more conve-
nient access to stored objects and can

partment4.Open the loading flap and use the mag-
netic holder to secure it to the rear
panel.
To store the ski bag, perform the above
steps in reverse order.
Ensure that the skis are clean before
loading them into the bag. Take care
to avoid damage from sharp edges.<
Securing load
After loading, secure the ski bag and its
contents. To do so, tighten the retaining
belt at the buckle.

fail to do so, it could move around and
endanger occupants during braking or eva-
sive maneuvers.<

two steps in the strip and press back
the filler element. Make sure that you do
not damage the rear seat upholstery.<
