may be adversely affected, for example re-

duced directional stability, longer stopping

distance and altered steering characteristics.

There is a risk of accident. Please comply

with the permitted load index of the tyre, and

do not exceed the permitted total weight.

Liquids in the luggage compartment may

cause damage. There is a risk of material

damage. Ensure that no liquids leak out into

If the permitted total weight and the permit-

ted axle loads are exceeded, the operational

safety of the vehicle is no longer guaranteed.

There is a risk of accident. Do not exceed

the permitted total weight and permitted axle

corners and edges on the load.

Do not stack loads above the upper edge of

the backrests.
