CAUTION

Things that must not be carried in the trunk

The following things may cause a fire if loaded in the trunk:

Receptacles containing gasoline

Aerosol cans

Storage precautions

Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.

Stow cargo and luggage in the trunk whenever possible.

To prevent cargo and luggage from sliding forward during braking, do
not stack anything in the enlarged trunk. Keep cargo and luggage low,
as close to the floor as possible.

When you fold down the rear seats, long items should not be placed
directly behind the front seats.

Never allow anyone to ride in the enlarged trunk. It is not designed for
passengers. They should ride in their seats with their seat belts prop-
erly fastened. Otherwise, they are much more likely to suffer death or
serious bodily injury, in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving
or an accident.

Do not place cargo or luggage in or on the following locations as the
item may get under the brake or accelerator pedal and prevent the
pedals from being depressed properly, block the driver’s vision, or hit
the driver or passengers, causing an accident:

• At the feet of the driver
• On the front passenger or rear seats (when stacking items)
• On the package tray
• On the instrument panel
• On the dashboard

Secure all items in the occupant compartment, as they may shift and
injure someone during sudden braking, sudden swerving or an acci-
dent.
