Store or secure all items that could
be thrown around and hurt
someone during a crash.

Be sure items placed on the floor
behind the front seats cannot roll
under the seats and interfere with
the driver’s ability to operate the
pedals, or with the proper
operation of the seats.

Keep the glove box closed while
driving. If the lid is open, a
passenger could injure their knees
during a crash or sudden stop.

This figure includes the total weight
of all occupants, cargo, and
accessories.

To figure out how much cargo you
can carry:

Add up the weight of all occupants.

The final number is the total weight
of cargo you can carry.

The maximum load for your car is
850 lbs (395 kg).

Subtract the total from 850 lbs
(395 kg).

Do not put any items on top of the
trunk panel. They can block your
view and be thrown around the car
during a crash.
