Driving with an open luggage compartment lid
Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS
Driving with an open luggage compartment lid, especially when the CSC roof is closed, can lead to
serious personal injury. If you have to drive with an open luggage compartment lid, make sure that all
objects and the lid itself are properly secured and take appropriate measures to keep toxic exhaust
fumes from entering the vehicle.
WARNING
Driving with an unlatched or open luggage compartment lid can lead to serious personal
injury.
Never transport objects larger than those that fit completely in the luggage compartment,
because the luggage compartment lid cannot be fully closed properly.
After closing the lid, always pull up on it to make sure that it is properly closed and cannot
open suddenly when the vehicle is moving.
Always stow all objects securely in the luggage compartment. Loose objects can fall out
of the luggage compartment and injure others on the road behind you.
Drive carefully; anticipate what other drivers will do.
Avoid abrupt or sudden acceleration, steering, or braking, because the unlatched luggage
compartment lid can move suddenly.
Always mark objects sticking out from the luggage compartment clearly for others to see.
Obey all applicable legal requirements.
Never use the luggage compartment lid to “clamp” or “hold” objects that stick out of the
luggage compartment.
Always remove any luggage rack or other rack mounted on the luggage compartment lid
(along with any luggage on the rack) before driving with an open luggage compartment lid.
