BEFORE DRIVING YOUR CAR 1–11
CAUTION
• Avoid loading goods over the
height of the side panels.
Do not load metal bar, other sharp-
ended goods or particularly volu-
minous goods blocking rear-view.
In a hard braking, collision or
accident, metal bar and other
longer rather than loading width of
deck or sharp-ended goods are ex-
tremely dangerous. They can get
thorough the rear window so that
serious injury or death of you and
passenger can occur due to the
metal bar or other longer rather
than loading width of deck or
sharp-ended goods.
• Tailgate, deck floor and tailgate
hinges can be damaged or broken
if you throw the goods or jump on
the tailgate while the tailgate is
opened.
• Avoid parking under direct snow,
rain or sunlight particularly for the
deck. When you find water (rain) or
snow on the deck, remove them
before driving.
WARNING
Do not load voluminous goods which
are blocked rearview on the deck.
Never use opening section (opening
clearance) on the upper portion of the
deck (D-pillar, arrowed direction) to
hold or tie down the goods using
ropes or wires.
D-pillar section (arrows) can be
damaged including painted surfaces.
SELF-LEVELIZER (SPORTS)*
The load capacity of Musso Sports is 400
kg. The length of “A” decreases according
to the luggage weight. The self-levelizer is
a system that steadily maintains the specific
length of “A” during load changes. When the
vehicle is driven for about 2 to 3 km after
loading the luggage, the vehicle’s up-and-
down vibration causes the pumping opera-
tion and compensates the constant length
(the length of “A”).
