backrests are securely locked into position. Otherwise there is a risk
of personal injury or damage to the
load or vehicle in the event of
heavy braking or a collision.
Load compartment cover
Extendable load compartment
cover Do not place any heavy or sharp-
edged objects on the extendable load
compartment cover.

Storage57
Rear parcel shelfThe rear parcel shelf consists of two
parts - a front part and rear part. The
front part can be opened or closed,
allowing for greater flexibility in the
load compartment.
Do not place any excessively heavy
or sharp-edged objects on the rear
parcel shelf.9 Warning
Always make sure that the load in
the vehicle is securely stowed.
Otherwise objects can be thrown
around inside the vehicle and
cause personal injury or damage
to the load or car.The rear parcel shelf can be installed
in 2 positions, i.e. the upper position
or the lower position. In the lower
position, the maximum load
permissible is 70 kg.
Removing
If the rear seats are in the folded
position, remove the parcel shelf and
store it horizontally between the back of the front seats and the folded rearseats.Caution
For safety reasons, do not place
loads on the folded rear seats.

58Storage
To remove, lift the front part of the
parcel shelf by releasing it from the
front retainers ( 1) on both sides.

and remove the roof rack when not in
use.
Mounting roof rack

Storage59
To fasten a roof rack, insert the
mounting bolts in the holes indicated
in the illustration.Loading information
■ Heavy objects in the load compartment should be evenly
distributed and placed as far
forward as possible. If objects can
be stacked, the heavier objects
should be placed at the bottom.
■ Secure objects with lashing straps attached to lashing eyes 3 58.
■ Secure loose objects in load compartment to prevent them from
sliding.
■ When transporting objects in the load compartment, the backrests ofthe rear seats must not be tilted
forwards or folded down.
■ Do not allow the load to protrude above the upper edge of the
backrests.
■ Do not place any objects on the extendable load compartment
cover 3 55 or the instrument panel,
and do not cover the sensor on top
of the instrument panel 3 97.■ The load must not obstruct the
operation of the pedals, parking
brake and gear selector, or hinder
the freedom of movement of the
driver. Do not place any unsecured objects in the interior.
■ Do not drive with an open load compartment.9 Warning
Always make sure that the load in
the vehicle is securely stowed.
Otherwise objects can be thrown
around inside the vehicle and
cause personal injury or damage
to the load or car.
■ The payload is the difference between the permitted gross
vehicle weight (see identification
plate 3 161) and the EC kerb
weight.
To calculate the payload, enter the
data for your vehicle in the Weights
table at the front of this manual.
The EC kerb weight includes
weights for the driver (68 kg),

60Storage
luggage (7 kg) and all fluids (tank
90 % full).
Optional equipment and
accessories increase the kerb
weight.
■ Driving with a roof load increases the sensitivity of the vehicle to
cross-winds and has a detrimental
effect on vehicle handling due to
the vehicle's higher centre of
gravity. Distribute the load evenly
and secure it properly with retaining
straps. Adjust the tyre pressure and
vehicle speed according to the load conditions. Check and retighten the
straps frequently.
Do not drive faster than 75 mph.
The permissible roof load (which
includes the weight of the roof rack)
is 100 kg. The roof load is the
combined weight of the roof rack
and the load.
