Cargo tie-down rings

Observe the following notes on securing loads:
• secure the load using the cargo tie down rings.
• do not use elastic straps or nets to secure a load, as these are only intended as an anti-slip protection for light loads.
• do not route tie downs across sharp edges or corners.
• pad sharp edges for protection.

There are four cargo tie down rings in the trunk.
