CARGO AREA FEATURES
Cargo Load Floor
The vehicle is equipped with a load floor that can be adjusted as needed.
Position 1 (Floor Flush):
This position allows you to make the load floor flat for ease of loading/unloading
objects from the cargo area. This position also makes it possible to use the space
below as another compartment for storing fragile or smaller objects.
Position 2 (Elevated Position):
When the rear seatbacks and front passenger seat is folded flat, it will allow for
loading objects of long dimensions. It is recommended to use this position only
during the actual transporting of the objects.
Table Tilt Load
In addition to the two positions described above, the load floor can also be placed in
a tilted position (slanted toward the rear seatbacks as to ease the access to the
underlying zone of the luggage compartment (e.g. to pick up the spare tire or the Tire
Service Kit).
Place the load floor in a way that it rests at the supports 1 and 2 on the sides of the
cargo area.
The load floor provides securing of any cargo inside this position, so that the cargo
will slide in the case of sudden braking.
