Securing cargo
Plastic hooks (Sedan)
On vehicles without a through-loading feature in the rear bench seat, six plastic hooks are installed to the trunk floor.

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 six cargo tie down rings in the trunk/cargo compartment.
