Unsecured or incorrectly stowed items can fly through the vehicle,
causing serious personal injury during hard braking or sharp
steering or in an accident. Loose items can also be struck and
thrown through the passenger compartment by the front airbags if
they inflate. To help reduce the risk of serious personal injury:
Always stow all objects securely in the vehicle. Always put
luggage and heavy items in the luggage compartment.
Always secure objects in the passenger compartment properly
with suitable straps so that they cannot move into the
deployment zone of a side or front airbag during sudden
braking, in a sudden maneuver, or in a collision.
Always keep storage compartments closed while driving.
Never stow hard, heavy, or sharp objects in the vehicle's open
storage compartments, on the luggage compartment cover, or
on the top of the instrument panel.
Always remove hard, heavy, or sharp objects from clothing
and bags in the vehicle interior and stow them securely in the
luggage compartment.
