WARNING
Make sure luggage and cargo is

collision and cause injury. Use the loops in the luggage compartment
to secure cargo with a rope or net. The
tensile strength of the loops is 196 N (20
kgf, 44 lbf). Do not apply excessive force
to the loops as it will damage them.
NOTE
To secure cargo with a rope or net, the trunk
board loops can be used in the same way as
the cargo securing loops (page 6-74).
