Enlarging the cargo compartment
Important safety notes
WARNING
When expanding the cargo volume, always
fully fold the corresponding seats and, if so equipped, always use the cargo net
when
transporting cargo.
Unless you are transporting cargo, the seat
backrests must remain properly locked in the
upright position.
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.
Always use the cargo tie-down rings.
WARNING
Never drive a vehicle with the tailgate open.
Deadly carbon monoxide (CO) gases may
enter vehicle interior resulting in
unconsciousness and death.
Release and fold the seat cushion upwards before folding the rear bench seat forward. Otherwise, the backrests may be damaged.
When the backrest is folded forwards, the front seats cannot be moved to their rearmost position. Otherwise, the front seats and the rear bench seat could be damaged.
The left-hand and right-hand backrests in the second row of seats can be folded forwards separately to increase the cargo compartment capacity. On vehicles with a third row of seats, you must fold down the third row of seats beforehand to obtain maximum cargo compartment enlargement.
