Cargo load precautions
WARNING
 To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death, the combined weights of the driver,
passengers and cargo and must never
exceed the vehicle capacity weight.
 Exceeding the vehicle capacity weight will
adversely affect vehicle performance,
including handling and braking, and may
cause an accident.
 Do not load cargo or luggage higher than
the top of the seatback. Be sure that your
cargo or luggage cannot move when your
vehicle is in motion.
Having either the rear view blocked, or
your cargo being thrown inside the cabin
if you suddenly have to brake can cause a
serious accident or injury or death.
 Put cargo or luggage in the cargo area of
your vehicle. Try to spread the weight
evenly.
Trailer towing
WARNING
 Do not use this vehicle for trailer towing.
It may not be possible to maintain control
or adequate braking.
