Loading
Cars with through-loading system:
1. Swing out the centre armrest, detach
the cover over the opening at the top
(it is secured by a burr fastener) and
place it on the armrest
2. Press button 1 down and swing the
cover forwards
3. Lay out the ski bag between the front
seats. The zip fastener simplifies
access to the contents of the bag,
and makes drying it out easier
4. Press catch button 2: this unlocks
the flap in the luggage compartment.
To stow away the ski bag, follow the
opposite procedure.
Securing the load
Secure the skis or any other
stored objects with the retaining
strap on the ski bag. Tighten the turn-
buckle to ensure that the retaining strap
is taut.
<
Make sure that the skis are clean
before they are inserted into the
bag, and that any sharp edges on them
or their bindings do not damage or
pierce the ski bag.
<
Loading
Always stow the load correctly
and secure it so that it cannot
endanger the car's occupants if the
driver has to brake heavily or swerve.
Do not exceed the car's gross weight
limit or the axle load limits (see
page 157) as this could render the car
unsafe as well as constitute a legal
offence.
Do not carry heavy or hard objects
loose in the occupant area, in case they
are thrown around and endanger the
occupants when the car is braked
heavily or during a sudden avoidance
manoeuvre.
