Loading
Because rear luggage racks raise the vehicle's
center of gravity when loaded, they have a ma‐
jor effect on vehicle handling and steering re‐
sponse.
Therefore, note the following when loading and
driving:
▷ Do not exceed the approved axle load and
the approved gross vehicle weight.
▷ Drive smoothly. Avoid sudden acceleration
and braking maneuvers. Take corners gen‐
tly.

Before starting to drive, check the function of
the rear luggage rack lights.
The rear luggage rack lights must not consume
more than:
▷ Turn signals: 42 watts per side.
▷ Rear lights: 50 watts per side.
▷ Brake lights: 84 watts in total.
▷ Rear fog lights: 42 watts in total.
▷ Backup light: 42 watts in total.
Driving on racetracks
