Loading recommendations
•
Load objects in the cargo compartment
against the backrest whenever possible.
•
If the backrests of the second row seats are
folded down, they should not be in contact
the front seat backrests. This could impede
the function of the Whiplash Protection
System (WHIPS).
•
Unstable loads can be secured to the load
anchoring eyelets with straps or web lash-
ings to help keep them from shifting.
•
Stop the engine and apply the parking brake
when loading or unloading long objects. The
gear selector can be knocked out of position
by long loads, which could set the vehicle in
motion.

Stop the engine, put the gear selector in
P , and apply the parking brake when
loading or unloading long objects.
•
The vehicle's driving characteristics may
change depending on the weight and dis-
tribution of the load.

force of 2,200 pounds (1,000 kg) in a
head-on collision at 30 mph (50 km/h).
•
The cargo area and rear seat should not
be loaded to a level higher than 2 in.
(5 cm) below the upper edge of the rear
side windows. Objects placed higher than
this level could impede the function of
the Inflatable Curtain.

Cover sharp edges on long loads to help
prevent injury to occupants. Secure the
load to help prevent shifting during sud-
den stops.
•
Always secure large and heavy objects
with a seat belt or cargo retaining straps.
