Securing loads
The mounting points are located in the floor and in the top edge of both sides of the cargo area.
Warning
Hard, sharp and/or heavy objects which protrude may cause injury under violent braking.
Always secure large and heavy objects with a seatbelt or cargo retaining straps.
Floor rails
In the floor of the cargo area there are two rails with movable cargo retaining hooks for securing items in the cargo area using cargo retaining straps.
Dirt and objects collecting down in the rails could hinder the repositioning, locking, raising and removal of the cargo retaining hooks. Make it a habit to clean the tracks with a vacuum cleaner and a lightly-moistened soft cloth.
Important
Load retaining straps
One loop of the load retaining strap around one of the load retaining hooks secures the strap and prevents it from sliding around the hook.
Note
Moving a cargo retaining hook
Fold the load retaining hook down in the direction to which its opening points.
Press the hook down lightly and at the same time push it to the required position.
Fold the hook up – it is self-locking.
Note
Removing a load retaining hook
The load retaining hooks can be easily removed from the rail, e.g. for cleaning the bottom of the rail.
Fold the load retaining hook down in the direction to which its opening points.
Press the hook down lightly and at the same time slide it to the cut-out opening.
Lift the hook straight up.
Securing the hook takes place in reverse order.
Note
Load retaining hook correctly fitted/incorrectly fitted
It is important that the load retaining hooks are fitted correctly. The hooks' openings must point away from each other.
