vehicle.
WARNING!
•It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or

in these areas are more likely to be seriously

• Do not allow people to ride in any area of your
vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat
belts. In a collision, people riding in these areas
are more likely to be seriously injured or killed.
