lation and any ensuing consequences.
Observe country-specific laws.
Make sure that the load is secure before every
journey and at regular intervals during a long
journey. Adjust the load securing as necessary.
Information on how to secure loads correctly can
be obtained from the manufacturers of load
securing aids or tie downs for load-securing, for
example.
R
Fill spaces between the load and the cargo
compartment walls and wheel wells. For this
purpose, use rigid load securing aids, such as
wedges, wooden fixings or padding.
R
Attach secured and stabilized loads in all
directions.
Use the cargo tie-down points or tie-down
eyes and the loading rails in the cargo com‐
partment or on the load surface.
Only use tie downs, such as lashing rods, lock
rods or lashing nets and lashing straps, which
has been tested in accordance with current
standards (e.g. DIN EN). Always use the cargo
tie-down point closest to the load; pad sharp
edges.
Loads, and heavy loads in particular, should
preferably be secured using the tie-down
eyes.

You can obtain tie downs tested in accord‐
ance with current standards (e.g. DIN EN)
from any specialist company or from a quali‐
fied specialist workshop.
Notes on the partition
Vehicles which are registered as commercial
vehicles (N1, N2) but do not have a partition do
not comply with ISO 27956, which describes the
equipment required for properly securing a load
in delivery vans. When using the vehicle to trans‐
port goods, it is strongly recommended to retrofit
the partition, as properly securing a load on vehi‐
cles without a partition is not possible without
involving considerable time and effort.

Secure loose loads with an approved lashing net
or a tarp.
Always fasten the lashing net or tarp to all availa‐
ble cargo tie-down points. Make sure that the fas‐
tening hooks are secured against accidental
opening.
If your vehicle is equipped with loading rails in
the cargo compartment floor, you can place lash‐
ing rods directly in front of and behind the load.
The lashing rods directly absorb the potential
shifting forces.
