LOADING, STORAGE AND PASSENGER COMPARTMENT
* Option/accessory.599
WARNINGIn a head-on collision at a speed of 50 km/h
(30 mph), an unsecured object weighing 20
kg (44 pounds) can reach a projectile weight
equivalent to 1000 kg (2200 pounds).
WARNING
If objects are loaded higher than the upper
edge of the side windows, leave a 10 cm (4
in.) space between the objects and the win-
dow. Objects placed closer to this could
impede the function of the inflatable curtain
concealed inside the headlining.
WARNING
Always secure the load. Otherwise, it may shift
during heavy braking and injure people in the
vehicle.
Cover sharp edges and sharp corners with
something soft.
Turn off the engine and apply the parking
brake when loading/unloading long objects.
Otherwise, it is possible for the load to reach
the gear lever or gear selector and move it to
a drive position – which could cause the vehi-
cle to begin rolling.
Extra cargo space
The rear seat backrests can be folded down to
increase cargo compartment space and simplify
loading. If the rear seat backrests are folded down, make sure that no objects loaded into the
vehicle prevent the WHIPS system for the front
seats from functioning correctly.
Raising/lowering the rear end of the
vehicle*
The rear end of the vehicle can be lowered or
raised for easier loading or to facilitate attaching
a trailer*.
The controls for raising/lowering are located at
the rear edge of the cargo compartment's right
side panel. Controls for raising/lowering the rear end of the vehicle.
The controls consist of two buttons ‒ one button
for lowering and one button for raising the rear
end. Press and hold the relevant button until the
desired height is reached.
The rear end of the vehicle cannot be raised
higher than its normal height. The rear end will return to the normal height
when the vehicle begins driving.
NOTE It is not possible to adjust the height of the
vehicle's rear when one or more of the doors
or the hood is open. This does not apply to
the tailgate.
WARNING
Make sure that no people, animals or objects
are found under the vehicle when it is low-
ered. This could endanger life and cause
damage to the vehicle or objects.
