WARNING

Vehicles with the Occupant Classification

System (OCS):
If the gross weight of the objects in the stow-

age net on the back of the front-passenger

seat is greater than 4.4 lb (2 kg), OCS cannot

correctly assess the occupant's weight cate-

gory. The front-passenger front air bag could

deploy without cause, or may fail to deploy in

the event of an accident. This poses an

increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Never exceed the permissible gross weight of

4.4 lb (2 kg). Stow and secure heavy objects in

the cargo compartment.
