Intr
oduction
Use the storage compartments only for small
or light items.
WARNING
Objects inside the vehicle that are not se-

of the vehicle, on the dashboard or on the
cover behind the rear seats, or inside
pieces of clothing or bags inside the vehi-
cle.
●
Keep the storage compartments closed
at all times while the vehicle is in motion.
WARNING
Objects in the driver's footwell could diffi-

When the vehicle is stationary, remove
the objects in the footwell.

Before closing a storage compartment,
make sure there are no lighters in the clos-

temperatures on such surfaces, particular-
ly during the summer.
