TRANSPORTING LUGGAGE
IMPORTANTFor vehicle versions
without Xenon lights travelling at night
with the luggage compartment loaded
it is necessary to adjust the dipped
beam headlight position (see “Head-
lamps” paragraph in this chapter).When loading the lug-
gage compartment, do
not exceed the permitted
weight limits (see “Technical
specifications” chapter). Also en-
sure that any objects in the lug-
gage compartment are firmly se-
cured and that they cannot be
thrown forward causing injury to
passengers if the vehicle brakes
suddenly.
Heavy loads which are
not securely anchored
could seriously injure pas-
sengers in the event of an acci-
dent. The addition of objects
(spoilers, etc.) on the rear
shelf or boot lid, except
those envisaged by the manufac-
turer, may prevent the tailgate
from working properly.

Anchoring the load fig. 155
The load can be secured with the
belts fastened to the appropriate rings
Ainside the luggage compartment.
These rings can also be used to fix
the luggage retaining net, where fitted.
