Important safety notes
G WARNING
When the load surface moves up, your hands
may become trapped on the frame of the
EASY-PACK trunk box. There is a risk of injury.
When the load surface moves up, make sure
that your hands are not within the sweep of
the load surface. If someone becomes trap-
ped, carefully push the center of the load sur-
face downward.
! When the EASY-PACK trunk box is pulled
out, no objects may be placed on the frame
of the box, nor should the frame be pushed
from above. Otherwise, the box could be
damaged.
!
Sharp-edged, pointed or fragile objects
can damage the EASY-PACK trunk box and
then be thrown out. There is a risk of injury.
Do not transport sharp-edged, pointed or
fragile objects in the EASY-PACK trunk box.
Always store and secure these or similar
objects in the trunk outside of the EASY-
PACK trunk box.
! If you exceed the maximum permitted
load of the EASY-PACK trunk box, objects
can be thrown out of the EASY-PACK trunk
box and strike vehicle occupants. There is a
risk of injury, particularly in the event of
sudden braking or a sudden change in
direction.
Always observe the maximum permitted
load of the EASY-PACK trunk box. Always
store and secure heavy objects in the trunk
outside of the EASY-PACK trunk box.
The maximum permitted load of the EASY-
PACK trunk box is 22 lbs (10 kg). With a load
of above approximately 11 lbs (5 kg), the bot-
tom of the box moves downward until it rests
on the mat of the trunk floor. Thus, overload-
ing of the box is avoided.
