Cargo Securing Loops
WA R N I N G
Make sure luggage and cargo is secured before driving:
Not securing cargo while driving is dangerous as
it could move or be crushed during sudden
braking or a 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.

assist grips and coat hooks:
Hanging heavy or sharp-ended objects
such as a coat hanger from the assist grips
