LOADING AND STORAGE

Cargo space
The vehicle has flexible cargo capacity that makes it possible to load and secure largeobjects.
By folding down the backrests in the second and third rows * of seats, the cargo capacity of the
vehicle increases considerably. To make loading easier, the rear section of the vehicle can beraised and lowered using the pneumatic suspen- sion *. Use the load anchoring eyelets or the gro-
cery bag holder to secure objects and the cargo compartment cover to help conceal the load. The jack *, tire sealing system and tools can be
found under the cargo compartment's floor.

Loading
The load carrying capacity of your vehicle is determined by factors such as the number ofpassengers, the amount of cargo, the weight ofany accessories that may be installed, etc.
Loading recommendations
• Load objects in the cargo compartment against the backrest whenever possible.
• If the backrests of the second row seats arefolded down, they should not be in contactwith the front seat backrests. This couldimpede the function of the WhiplashProtection System (WHIPS).
• Unstable loads can be secured to the loadanchoring eyelets with straps or web lash-ings to help keep them from shifting.
• Stop the engine and apply the parking brakewhen loading or unloading long objects. Thegear selector can be knocked out of positionby long loads, which could set the vehicle inmotion.
WARNING
•
Stop the engine, put the gear selector in P
, and apply the parking brake when
loading or unloading long objects.
• The vehicle's driving characteristics may change depending on the weight and dis-tribution 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 should notbe loaded to a level higher than 2 in.(5 cm) below the upper edge of the rearside windows. Objects placed higher thanthis level could impede the function ofthe Inflatable Curtain.
WARNING
• Cover sharp edges on long loads to help prevent injury to occupants. Secure theload to help prevent shifting during sud-den stops.
• Always secure large and heavy objectswith a seat belt or cargo retaining straps.
• Always secure the load to help prevent itfrom moving in the event of sudden stops.
• Switch off the engine, apply the parking brake and put the gear selector in
P
when loading and unloading the vehicle.

Extra loading spaceThe rear seat backrests can be folded down to added cargo space or for transporting longobjects.
WARNING
• Boxes, suitcases, etc. wedged behind the front seats could impede the function ofthe Whiplash Protection System.
• If the rear seat backrests are foldeddown, cargo must be secured to preventit from sliding forward against the frontseat backrests in the event of a collisionfrom the rear. This could interfere withthe action of the Whiplash ProtectionSystem.

Activating ACC (putting it in active mode and setting a speed)
Before ACC can be put in active mode:
• The driver's seat belt must be buckled and the driver's door must be closed.
• There must be a vehicle ahead (a target vehi-cle) within a reasonable distance or yourvehicle's current speed must be at least9 mph (15 km/h).
–With the symbol displayed (ACC is in
standby mode), press the
button (1) on
the left-side steering wheel keypad.
> This puts ACC in active mode and sets the vehicle's current speed, which is indi- cated by digits in the center of the speed-ometer. The
time interval to the vehi-
cle ahead will only be shownwhen two vehicles are dis-played.
A speed interval will also be indicated:
• The higher speed is the one set in ACC
• The lower one is the speed of the vehicle ahead (the target vehicle).

WARNING
When ACC is in standby mode, the driver has to control the vehicle's speed and distance toa vehicle ahead. When ACC is in standby mode, the driver will be alerted if the distance to the vehicle aheadis too short by the Distance Alert function.See the article "Distance Alert" for additionalinformation.
Standby mode due to action by the driver
ACC is temporarily deactivated and put in standby mode if:
• the brakes are applied
• The gear selector is moved to
N
• the vehicle is driven faster than the setspeed for more than 1 minute.
In these cases, the driver will have to regulate thevehicle's speed. A temporary increase in speed, such as when passing another vehicle, does not affect the ACCset speed. The vehicle will return to the set speedwhen the accelerator pedal is released.
Automatic standby mode
ACC interacts with other systems, such as Electronic Stability Control. If any of these othersystems are not functioning properly, ACC willturn off automatically.
WARNING
If this happens, the driver will be alerted by an audible signal and a message in the instru-ment panel. The driver will have to adapt thevehicle's speed, apply the brakes when nec-essary and keep a safe distance to the vehicleahead.
ACC switches automatically to standby mode if: • the vehicle's speed goes below approx. 3 mph (5 km/h) and ACC cannot determineif the vehicle ahead is stationary or is anobject such as a speed bump, etc
• the vehicle's speed goes below approx.3 mph (5 km/h) and the vehicle aheadchanges lanes or turns so that ACC nolonger has a target vehicle to follow
• the driver opens the door
• the driver unbuckles the seat belt
• the engine speed (rpm) is too high/low
• the wheels lose traction
• the brake temperature is too high
• the parking brake is applied
• the stability system's
ESC Sport Mode is
activated
• the
Off Road drive mode is selected
• The radar sensor is covered by e.g., wet snow or if heavy rain interferes with radar waves
Reactivating ACC from standby mode
Generic illustration
To reactivate ACC after it has temporarily been put in standby mode:
–Press the button (1).
> The vehicle will then return to the most
recently set speed .

WARNING
At speeds above 20 mph (30 km/h), if ACC
changes targets from a moving vehicle to a stationary one, the system will not react to the
stationary vehicle and will accelerate to the previously set speed. The driver must actively apply the brakes to slow/stop the vehicle.
Automatic standby mode when changing targets
ACC disengages and goes into standby mode if:
• your vehicle's speed goes below approx. 3 mph (5 km/h) and ACC cannot determineif the target object is a stationary vehicle orsome other type of object such as a speedbump, etc
• the vehicle's speed goes below approx.3 mph (5 km/h) and the vehicle aheadchanges lanes or turns so that ACC nolonger has a target vehicle to follow.
Auto-hold brake functionIn slow-moving, stop-and-go traffic or when stop-ped at a traffic light, driving will resume automati-cally if the vehicle is not stopped for more thanapprox. 3 seconds. If it takes more than3 seconds for the vehicle ahead to begin movingagain, ACC will go into standby mode and theauto-hold brake function will activate.
–The driver will then have to reactivate ACC in one of the following ways:
• Press the
button on the left-side
steering wheel keypad.
• Press the accelerator pedal.
> ACC will resume following the vehicle ahead (target vehicle) if it begins to move within approx. 6 seconds.
NOTE
ACC can keep the vehicle at a standstill for up to 5 minutes, after which the parking brakewill be set and ACC will go into standbymode. The parking brake has to be released before ACC can be reactivated.
Deactivation of the auto-hold brake function
In certain situations, auto-hold will be deactivated when the vehicle is at a standstill and ACC will gointo standby mode. This means that the brakes will be released and the vehicle can begin to roll. The driver must actively apply the brakes to keep the vehicle at a standstill. This can occur in the following situations: • the driver presses the brake pedal
• the parking brake is set •
the gear selector is moved to the
P, N or R
positions
• the driver puts ACC in standby mode.
Automatically setting the parking brakeIn certain situations, the parking brake is set automatically to help keep the vehicle at a stand-still. This occurs if ACC keeps the vehicle at a stand- still with the brakes and:
• the driver unbuckles the seat belt or opensthe door
• ACC has kept the vehicle at a standstill formore than approx. 5 minutes
• the brakes overheat
• the engine is turned off.
