LOADING, STORAGE AND PASSENGER COMPARTMENT
Sun visors
Cargo compartment
Loading recommendations
In the ceiling in front of the driver's and front
passenger's seats, there are sun visors that
can be lowered and angled to the side as
necessary.
The vehicle has a flexible cargo compartment
that makes it possible to carry and secure
large objects.
There are a number of things that are impor-
tant to consider when carrying loads in or on
the vehicle.
Load-carrying capacity is determined by the
vehicle's curb weight. The total weight of all
passengers and any installed accessories
reduces the vehicle's load-carrying capacity by
the corresponding amount.
The cargo capacity of the vehicle can be con-
siderably increased by folding down the rear
seat backrests. To make loading and unload-
ing easier, the rear section of the vehicle can
be raised and lowered using the level control
function*. Use the load anchoring eyelets or
grocery bag holders to help secure objects in
place, and the retractable cargo compartment
cover* to help conceal objects in the cargo
compartment.
WARNING
The vehicle's driving characteristics change
depending on the weight and position of
the load.
The towing eyelet and tire sealing system, or
the temporary spare tire*, are located under
the cargo compartment floor.
Loading the cargo compartment/trunk
Keep the following in mind when loading:
The illustration is generic – the design may vary.
Position objects so they are pressing
against the rear seat backrests.
