operation of the pedals, parking
brake and gear selector lever,
or hinder the freedom of
movement of the driver. Do not
place any unsecured objects in
the interior.
. Do not drive with an open load
compartment.

The payload is the difference
between the permitted gross
vehicle weight (see identification
plate
0Vehicle Identification
Number (VIN) 0205) and the
kerb weight. For the kerb weight
in detail, refer to the technical
data section.
The kerb weight includes
weights for the driver (68 kg),
luggage (7 kg) and all fluids
(tank 90% full).
Optional equipment and
accessories increase the kerb
weight. .
Driving with a roof load
increases the sensitivity of the
vehicle to cross-winds and has a
detrimental effect on vehicle
handling due to the vehicle's
higher centre of gravity.
Distribute the load evenly and
secure it properly with retaining
straps. Adjust the tyre pressure
and vehicle speed according to
the load conditions. Check and
retighten the straps frequently.
