Ease of use and comfort
Make sure that the size, shape and
volume of the loads carried are
compatible with the highway code and safety
regulations and do not impair the driver’s field
of vision.
The load must be evenly distributed in the loading area so as not to interfere
with driving the vehicle.
Place the load close to the side wall panels,
or push it against the side wall panels
between the wheel arches.
However, it is recommended that heavy
objects are placed as close to the cab as
possible as a precaution in case of sharp
braking.
Firmly secure all parts of the load using
the stowing rings on the floor of the
loading area.
For more information on the Interior fittings
and in particular on the stowing rings, refer to
the corresponding section.
To avoid the risk of injury or accident, the load must be made stable so that it
cannot slide, tip over, fall or be projected. To
do this, use only retaining straps that conform
to current standards (DIN, for example).
For more information on putting straps in
place, refer to the manufacturer’s user guide.
To prevent the load from sliding, there must
not be any empty spaces between the load
items and the vehicle wall panels.
As well as the straps, optimise the stability
of the load with stable handling equipment
(wedges, rigid blocks of wood or padding).
When washing the vehicle, never clean
the interior directly with a water jet.
For the Extenso Cab and the
Crew cab
Do not place sharp or pointed objects in
the protective cover to avoid damaging it.
Do not place objects on the

For more information on Deactivating
the front passenger airbag, refer to the
corresponding section.
Avoid placing short or heavy loads in the protective cover; use the loading area
whenever possible.
Avoid anchoring loads or hanging items on the wall of the partition.
For safety reasons, ensure that small objects
do not slip through the gaps of about 3
cm
between the partition and the vehicle's
bodywork.

bench seat and a removable flap.
For more information on the two-seat front

A partition located on the floor behind the front
seats protects the driver and front passengers
against the risk of load movement.
A movable flap in this partition can be removed
to allow long items to be loaded.
A protective cover is supplied with the vehicle to
enable long items to be carried safely.
