CAUTION - Loading Cargo
Be careful when loading cargo
through the rear passenger
seats to prevent damage to
the vehicle interior.
Secure cargo loaded through
the rear passenger seats, to
ensure the cargo is not mov-
ing while driving. Unsecured
cargo in the passenger com-
partment can cause damage
to the vehicle.
WARNING - Cargo
Cargo should always be
secured to prevent it from being
thrown about the vehicle in a
collision and causing injury to
the vehicle occupants. Do not
place objects on the rear seats,
since they cannot be properly
secured and may hit the front
seat occupants in a collision.
WARNING - Cargo Loading
Damage to HEV battery
Do not damage the high voltage
battery when loading cargo
through the rear seat. If the bat-
tery is damaged, it may cause
electric shock or burns which can
result in death or serious injuries.
