CAUTION

• Make sure the engine is off, the

transaxle is in P and the parking
brake is applied whenever load-
ing or unloading cargo. Vehicle
may move if shift lever is inadver-
tently moved to another position.

• Be careful when loading cargo

through the rear passenger seats
to prevent damage to the vehicle
interior.

• When cargo is loaded through the

rear passenger seats, ensure the
cargo is properly secured to pre-
vent it from moving while driving.
Unsecured cargo in the passen-
ger compartment can cause dam-
age to the vehicle or injury to it’s
occupants.

WARNING

The purpose of the fold-down rear
seatbacks is to allow you to carry
longer objects than could other-
wise be accommodated.
Never allow passengers to sit on
top of the folded down seatback
while the car is moving as this is
not a proper seating position and
no seat belts are available for use.
This could result in serious injury
or death in case of an accident or
sudden stop. Objects carried on the
folded down seatback should not
extend higher than the top of the
front seats. This could allow cargo
to slide forward and cause injury or
damage during sudden stops.
