loose or protrude could cause injury during
heavy braking.
Always secure large and heavy objects with
a seatbelt or cargo retaining straps.

The bag holder keeps carrier bags in place and
prevents them from overturning and spreading
their contents across the cargo area.

hatch.
2. Fasten the bags with strap and secure the
carrying handle in the hooks.

socket.
•The socket also provides voltage when the
remote control key is not in the ignition
switch.

with the engine switched off involves the
risk of discharging the car's battery.
