WARNING!
The weight and position of cargo and passengers can
change the vehicle center of gravity and vehicle
handling. To avoid loss of control resulting in per-
sonal injury, follow these guidelines for loading your
vehicle:
• Always place cargo evenly on the cargo floor.
Put heavier objects as low and as far forward as
possible.
• Place as much cargo as possible in front of the rear
axle. Too much weight or improperly placed
weight over or behind the rear axle can cause the
rear of the vehicle to sway.
• Do not pile luggage or cargo higher than the top of
the seatback. This could impair visibility or be-
come a dangerous projectile in a sudden stop or
collision.
Trunk Mat — If Equipped
A trunk mat covers the bottom of the cargo area. The trunk
mat is used to protect the interior of the trunk from mud,
snow, and debris.
Cargo Tie-Downs
The rear cargo area is equipped with cargo tie-downs,
located on either side of the rear cargo area.
