Ventilated seats
Seat ventilation can be used at the same time as seat heating (p. 129) to e.g., help remove
dampness from the seat occupant's clothing.
Ventilated front seats*The ventilation system consists of fans in theseats and backrests that draw air through theseat upholstery. The cooling effect increasesas the air in the passenger compartmentbecomes cooler. The ventilation is controlled by the ECC sys- tem (p. 128), which takes into account theseat temperature, sunlight in the passengercompartment, and the ambient temperature. The ventilation can be used at the same time as seat heating. The ventilation system can be activated when the engine is running. There are three comfortlevels that produce different cooling anddehumidifying effects:
• Level three: press the button once for maximum output – three indicator lightscome on.
• Level two: press the button twice for alower output – two indicator lights comeon.
• Level one: press the button three timesfor the lowest output – one indicator lightcomes on. •

Loading – general
The load carrying capacity of your vehicle is determined by factors such as the number ofpassengers, the amount of cargo, the weightof any accessories that may be installed, etc. To increase loading space, the rear seat backrests can be folded down, see Rearseats – folding backrest (p. 86). When loading the cargo area, keep the fol- lowing in mind:
• Load objects in the cargo area against the backrest whenever possible.
• Unstable loads can be secured to theload anchoring eyelets with straps or weblashings to help keep them from shifting.
• Stop the engine and apply the parkingbrake when loading or unloading longobjects. The gear selector can beknocked out of position by long loads,which could set the vehicle in motion.WARNING
•Stop the engine, put the gear selector in
P, and apply the parking brake
when loading or unloading longobjects.
• The vehicle's driving characteristicsmay change depending on the weightand distribution of the load.
• A 44-pound (20 kg) object produces aforce of 2,200 pounds (1,000 kg) in ahead-on collision at 30 mph (50 km/h).
• The cargo area and rear seat shouldnot be loaded to a level higher than2 in. (5 cm) below the upper edge ofthe rear side windows. Objects placedhigher than this level could impede thefunction of the Inflatable Curtain.
