Always place the objects to be trans -
ported so that their largest side rests
against the back of the rear bench
seat, for normal loads (Example A), or
against the back of the front seats when
the rear bench seatbacks are folded
down, as with maximum loads (exam -
ple B).
Always position the heavi -
est items directly on the

on the floor of the luggage
compartment, if these are fitted to
the vehicle. The luggage should be
loaded in such a way that no items
will be thrown forward and strike the
occupants if the driver has to brake
suddenly. Fasten the rear seat belts,
even if the seats are not occupied.

wheel bolts 1 . Fit it so that you press
downwards rather than pulling up -
wards.

ing lights.
Keep the vehicle away from
traffic and on a level sur -
face where it will not slip (if neces -

gear (first or reverse).
Ask all the passengers to leave the
vehicle and keep them away from
traffic.
To prevent any risk of injury
or damage to the vehicle,
only crank the jack until the
