Cargo compartment
The vehicle has a flexible cargo compartment
that makes it possible to carry and secure
large objects.
The cargo capacity of the vehicle can be con-
siderably increased by folding down the rear
seat backrests. To make loading and unload-
ing easier, the rear section of the vehicle can
be raised and lowered using the level control
function
*
. Use the load anchoring eyelets or
grocery bag holders to help secure objects in
place, and the retractable cargo compartment
cover
*
to help conceal objects in the cargo
compartment.
If the vehicle is equipped with a temporary
spare tire, this is secured to the cargo com-
partment floor under the cover. The towing
eyelet and tire sealing system are located
under the cargo compartment floor.

Loading recommendations
There are a number of things that are impor-
tant to consider when carrying loads in or on
the vehicle.
Load-carrying capacity is determined by the
vehicle's curb weight. The total weight of all
passengers and any installed accessories
reduces the vehicle's load-carrying capacity by
the corresponding amount.
WARNING
The vehicle's driving characteristics change
depending on the weight and position of
the load.
Loading the cargo compartment/trunk
Keep the following in mind when loading:
•
Position objects so they are pressing
against the rear seat backrests.
•
Heavy objects should be positioned as low
as possible. Avoid placing heavy objects
on folded-down seat backrests.
•
Cover sharp corners with a soft cloth or
similar to help prevent damage to the
upholstery.
•
Use the load anchoring eyelets and ten-
sioning straps or similar to secure all
objects.
