Carrying long/narrow cargo
Additional cargo space is provided to
accommodate long/narrow cargo
(skis, poles, etc.) not able to fit prop-
erly in the trunk when closed.
1. Pull the armrest down.
2. Pull the cover down while pushing
the release lever down.
WARNING - Cargo loading
Make sure the engine is off, the
transaxle is in P (Park) and the
parking brake is securely applied
whenever loading or unloading
cargo. Failure to take these steps
may allow the vehicle to move if
the shift lever is inadvertently
moved to another position.
WARNING- Cargo
Cargo should always be
secured to prevent it from being
thrown about the vehicle in a
collision and causing injury to
the vehicle occupants. Do not
place objects in the rear seats,
since they cannot be properly
secured and may hit the front
seat occupants in a collision.

WARNING - Objects
Objects carried on the folded
down seatback should not extend
higher than the top of the front
seatbacks. This could allow cargo
to slide forward and cause injury
or damage during sudden stops.WARNING- Folded
Seatback
The purpose of the middle fold-
down rear seatbacks is to allow
you to carry longer objects than
could not otherwise be accom-
modated.
Never allow a passenger to sit
on top of the folded down
seatback while the car is mov-
ing. This is not a proper seat-
ing position since no seat
belts are available for use.
To reduce the risk of injury
caused by sliding cargo within
the passenger compartment
of the vehicle, objects carried
on the folded down seatback
should not extend higher than
the top of the front seats.
