WARNING
- Cargo
Cargo should always be
secured to prevent it from being
thrown about the vehicle in a
collision and causing injury to
the vehicle occupants. Special
care should be taken of objects
placed in the rear seats, since
those may hit the front seat
occupants in a frontal collision.
CAUTION -
Cargo loading
Make sure the engine is off, the
transaxle is in P and the parking
brake is applied whenever load-
ing or unloading cargo. Failure
to take these steps may allow
the vehicle to move if shift lever
is inadvertently moved to anoth-
er position.
CAUTION -
Rear floor
Do not remove the floor carpet
in your vehicle. Emission con-
trol system components in the
area of the rear seats cause
high exhaust temperatures
under the floor.
