REAR CARGO TIE-DOWNS
To make it easier to secure your load, there are hooks (if equipped) fixed to the floor.
WARNING!
• To help protect against personal injury, passengers should not be seated in the
rear cargo area. The rear cargo space is intended for load carrying purposes
only, not for passengers, who should sit in seats and use seat belts.
• Cargo tie-down hooks are not safe anchors for a child seat tether strap. In a
sudden stop or accident, a hook could pull loose and allow the child seat to
come loose. A child could be badly injured. Use only the anchors provided for
child seat tethers.
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 personal injury,
follow these guidelines for loading your vehicle:
• Do not carry loads which exceed the load limits described on the label attached
to the left door or left door center pillar.
• 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 become a dangerous projectile in a sudden stop or accident.
