Warning (Continued)
Protect the tie-down straps from
sharp edges of the load. Replace
them if they begin to wear.
Make sure the back seat is locked
in the upright position whenever
carrying heavy loads. This is a
basic requirement for protection
against load displacement in the
event of sudden braking or a
collision.
The rear seat in the upright
position provides greater
protection against load
displacement.
The driving characteristics of the
vehicle can be affected because
the centre of gravity is altered
when there is a load in the cargo
area. Match your speed and
driving style according to how the
vehicle is loaded.

Warning (Continued)
Make sure the rear axle load of
the vehicle is not exceeded. See
“ Axle loads ” under Vehicle Weight
0 319 .
The maximum load for the
tie-down system is 80 kg single
mass when used in conjunction
with the Holden approved straps.
That is, if an object weighs 80 kg,
only one object can be held by
the tie-down system.
Do not use when there are visible
signs of wear or damage.
Place loads as low down and as
far forward in the cargo area as
possible. That is, against the
back seat.
