tip

Maximum weight on the rear parcel shelf: 2 kg evenly distributed.

  • push the shelf 2 inwards and turn it;
  • pull the shelf towards you.

To refit, proceed in the reverse order to removal.

warning

Do not place any objects, especially heavy or hard objects, on the parcel shelf.

These may pose a risk to the vehicle occupants if the driver has to brake suddenly or if the vehicle is involved in an accident.

Charging lead storage tray

Depending on the vehicle, this tray is intended to store charging cables. The maximum permissible load per tray is 10 kg.

To access it, open the luggage compartment then raise the luggage compartment carpet using the handle 3.

warning

If there is water in the charging lead storage tray, signs of corrosion or foreign bodies in the charging lead connector or in the vehicle charging socket, do not charge the vehicle.

Fire hazard.

Take care of the cable: do not tread on it, immerse it in water, pull on it or let anything knock against it.

Check and clean the storage tray regularly.

Transporting objects in the luggage compartment

Always position the objects transported so that the largest surface is against:

  • The back of the rear bench seat, for normal loading (example A).

  • The front seatbacks with the rear seatbacks folded down, as is the case for maximum loads (example B).

Ensure that the objects being transported are evenly distributed throughout the loading area.

If you have to place objects on the folded seat back, it is vital that you remove the headrests before folding the seat back so that it can be folded as flat as possible against the seat.

warning

When refitting the seatback, make sure it is correctly locked in place.

If seat covers are fitted, make sure these do not prevent the seatback latch from locking in.

Make sure that the seat belts are positioned correctly.

Reposition the headrests. The headrest is a safety component; check that it is fitted and in the correct position.

warning

Always position the heaviest items directly on the floor. Use the lashing points 4 on the luggage compartment floor, if these are fitted to the vehicle. The luggage should be loaded in such a way that no items will be thrown forward and strike the occupants if the driver has to brake suddenly. Fasten the rear seat belts, even if the seats are not occupied.
