spread the weight evenly. .
Never stack heavier
things, like suitcases,
inside the vehicle so that
some of them are above
the tops of the seats. .
Do not leave an
unsecured child restraint
in the vehicle.
(Continued) Warning (Continued) .
When you carry something
inside the vehicle, secure
it whenever you can. .
Do not leave a seat folded
