Fitting and removing the safety net*
The safety net prevents loads from being thrown forward in the passenger compartment in the event of sudden braking.
The safety net is fitted into four mounting points.
For reasons of safety, the safety net must always be fastened and anchored as described below.
The net is made of a strong nylon fabric and can be secured two different locations in the car:
- Rear fitting - behind the rear seat.
- Front fitting - behind the front seats.
Warning
Loads in the luggage compartment must be anchored well, and also using a correctly fitted safety net.
