There are tie down eyes in the trunk that
should be used to secure loads. In general,
loads should be placed as far forward and
as low down as possible in the trunk.

The trunk release handle was not
designed to be used to tie down the trunk
lid or as an anchor point when securing
items in the trunk. Improper use of the
trunk release could damage it.

• Lay heavy bags on the floor. Place
smaller and lighter bags on top.

the lashing eyes provided in the trunk.
