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.
