CAUTION
Secure all items in the occupant compartment, as they may shift and injure
someone in the event of a sudden braking, sudden swerving or an acci-
dent.
Never allow anyone to ride in the rear deck. It is not designed for passen-
gers. They should ride in their seats with their seat belts properly fastened.
Otherwise, they are much more likely to suffer death or serious bodily
injury, in the event of a sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
Load and distribution
Do not overload your vehicle.
Do not apply loads unevenly.
Improper loading may cause deterioration of steering or braking control
which may cause death or serious injury.
