Cargo Extension Panels (Only With Sliding
Rear Seat) — If Equipped
Cargo extension panels can be folded and
unfolded. When the rear seats are moved to the
more forward positions and the rear seat backs
are folded down, the extension panels (2) can
be unfolded manually by hand. The extension
panels can be used to extend the load floor to
the rear seats and/or hide the gap between the
load floor and rear seats or to assist in loading
large items into the cargo area.
NOTE:
If equipped with a cargo area floor mat, the mat
must be removed before unfolding the exten-
sion panels.
Cargo Tie-Down Hooks And Loops
The tie-downs located on the cargo area floor
should be used to secure loads safely when the
vehicle is moving.
Cargo tie-down loops are located on the trim
panels.
Rear Storage Bins
The rear storage bins are located in the rear of
the vehicle on the sides of the load floor.
WARNING!
Cargo tie-downs are not safe anchors for a
child seat tether strap. In a sudden stop or
accident, a tie-down could pull loose and
allow the child seat to come loose. A child
could be badly injured. Use only the
anchors provided for child seat tethers.
To help protect against personal injury,
passengers should not be seated in the
rear cargo area. The rear cargo space is
intended for load carrying purposes only,
not for passengers, who should sit in seats
and use seat belts.
The weight and position of cargo and
passengers can change the vehicle center of
gravity and vehicle handling. To avoid loss of
control resulting in personal injury, follow
these guidelines for loading your vehicle:
Do not carry loads that exceed the load
limits described on the label attached to
the left door or left door center pillar.
Always place cargo evenly on the cargo
floor. Put heavier objects as low and as far
forward as possible.
Place as much cargo as possible in front of
the rear axle. Too much weight or improp-
erly placed weight over or behind the rear
axle can cause the vehicle to sway.
Do not pile luggage or cargo higher than the
top of the seatback. This could impair visi-
bility or become a dangerous projectile in a
sudden stop or accident.
