The configuration of the
two-seat bench with the
small seatback B pulled
down, does not allow the
central seat to be used as it would
be impossible to buckle the seat belt
(belt buckles inaccessible).
When refitting the seat-
back, make sure it is cor-
rectly locked in place.
If seat covers are fitted ,
make sure these do not prevent the
seatback latch from locking in.

Always position the heavi-
est items directly on the
floor. Use the lashing
points 1 on the boot floor, if
these are fitted to the vehicle. The
luggage should be loaded in such a

ward and strike the occupants if the
driver has to brake suddenly. Fasten
the rear seat belts, even if the seats
are not occupied.
TRANSPORTING OBJECTS IN THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT
Always position the objects transported
so that the largest surface is against:
– The rear bench seatback for normal loads (example A).
– The front seatbacks with the rear
seatbacks folded down, the mobile
floor in the flat-floor position (exam-
ple B).
– The front seatbacks with the rear seatbacks folded down, the mobile
floor in the stored-away position, as is
the case for maximum loads (exam-
ple C).
If you have to place objects on the folded
seatback, it is necessary that you lower
the headrests before folding the seat-
back so that it can be folded as flat as
possible against the seat.
