Cargo compartment enlargement
Important safety notes
WARNING
Always lock the seat backrest in its upright position when the rear seat bench is occupied, or the extended cargo volume is not in use.
Check for secure locking by pushing and pulling on the seat backrest. In an accident, during hard braking or sudden maneuvers, loose items will be thrown around inside the vehicle. This can cause injury to vehicle occupants unless the items are securely fastened in the vehicle. To help avoid personal injury during a collision or sudden maneuver, exercise care when transporting cargo.
WARNING
Never drive a vehicle with the tailgate open. Deadly carbon monoxide (CO) gases may enter vehicle interior resulting in unconsciousness and death.
The left-hand and right-hand rear seat backrests can be folded forwards separately to increase the cargo compartment capacity.
