Saab 2001 9-5 2.3 Turbo Ecopower, Owner'S Manual, Page: 135 / 272

135 Interior equipment and trunk
WARNING
• Place heavy items closest to the backrest and stow smaller
and lighter items on top.
• Secure heavy and bulky items using the four tie down points
provided in the trunk. This will avert the danger of luggage
flying around if the car should brake suddenly or be involved
in an accident (see page 136).
• When the backrest is folded down or the trunk pass-through
hatch is open, even small items can be thrown around inside
the car. It is therefore advisable to secure these as well.
• Do not exceed the load capacity of the car, as this will alter its
handling characteristics (see page 250).
• Make sure that the seat cushions and backrests are properly
secured when folding them back to their normal position.
Check that the button (item 3 on page 134) is flush with the
surround before entering the back seat.
The tail pipe of the exhaust system can become very hot during
driving. Bear this in mind when loading and unloading the car so
that children, for example, do not burn themselves.
