Fuel Cut-off System, Carrying Cargo

To turn off the valve, turn the lever

one-quarter turn clockwise. Turn it

counterclockwise to turn the valve

back on.

Turn off the valve if you ever suspect

a fuel leak or are involved in an

accident.

Carrying Cargo

The maximum load you can carry in

your car is 635 Ibs (288 kg). That

figure includes the total weight of

four occupants (driver and three

passengers), their cargo, and any

accessories. The maximum

recommended weight for cargo in

the trunk is 35 Ibs (16 kg).

The fuel tank is located in the trunk,

with a partition between the fuel

tank and the cargo space.

When you store small items in the

trunk, secure them so they will not

shift while you are driving. Loose

items can fly over the partition and

damage the fuel tank and fuel

system components.

Do not carry large, heavy or pointed

objects in the trunk. They may

damage the fuel tank.
