Cargo loading
To avoid loading the tires beyond their
approved carrying capacity, never over-
load the vehicle. Overloading can lead to over-
heating and increases the rate at which damage
develops inside the tires. The ultimate result can
assume the form of a sudden blow-out.
<
Avoid fluid spills in the cargo bay as they
could damage the vehicle.
<
Cargo bay cover
Do not place any objects on the cover,
otherwise they could endanger the car's
occupants, e.g. in the case of braking or sudden
swerving.
<
The luggage compartment cover can be locked
in intermediate positions 1 to 3.
To load bulky luggage, the cover can be
removed.
1.
Pull on the handle, arrow 1, to detach the
cargo bay cover.
2.
Lift the cargo bay cover up out of the hold-
ers, arrows 2.
Expanding the cargo bay
The rear set backrest is split. Both sides can be
folded separately to expand the cargo bay.
If necessary, remove the third head restraint
(see Head restraints, Removing on page
31
).
By way of example, the illustration shows the
cargo compartment in the MINI.
1.
Pull the lever.
2.
Fold rear seat backrests forward.
When folding the backrest back up, make
sure that the seat's locking mechanisms
engage properly. Otherwise, cargo could be
thrown around in the event of sharp braking or
swerving and endanger the occupants.
<
Adjusting rear seat backrest*
Expand the cargo bay by raising the split rear
seat backrests to a steeper angle.
