Controls and features To secure objects on the shelf: 1. Disconnect the net loops from the retainers underneath the shelf. 2. Place the objects underneath the net and secure the net loops to the retainers underneath the shelf. All objects loaded on the cargo shelf MUST BE SECURED UNDER THE CARGO NET. The net is permanently attached to the cargo shelf. Do not load more than 14 kg (30 lbs.) on the parcel shelf. Make sure the rear seat back is in the rearmost/upright position when parcel shelf is loaded. Do not load any objects on the parcel shelf that may obstruct your vision or strike occupants of the vehicle in the case of a sudden stop or collision. Failure to secure cargo under the cargo net will increase the risk of the cargo striking occupants in the case of a sudden stop or collision. Do not load the parcel shelf through the liftgate glass. You MUST open the entire rear liftgate to gain access to the rear net retainers under the shelf. To properly use child safety tethers in the 3rd row seat position, REMOVE THE PARCEL SHELF and tether child safety seat to the tether anchor located on the floor behind the 3rd row seat. Do not place people or pets on or under the parcel shelf. 109
