dangerous. To reduce the possibility of
injury in an accident or a sudden stop,
keep the storage boxes closed when
driving.

Do not put articles in storage spaces

Putting articles in storage spaces with
no lid is dangerous as they could be
thrown around the cabin if the vehicle
is suddenly accelerated and cause
injury depending on how the article is
stored.

in the storage boxes while parked
under the sun. A lighter could explode
or the plastic material in eyeglasses
could deform and crack from high
temperature.
