138 Interior equipment Load-through hatch, Sport Sedan Convertible: There is no load-through hatch. WARNING • Always secure the load firmly, for example using the middle safety belt. This reduces the danger of personal injury resulting from the displacement of the load on hard braking or in the event of a crash. • Do not exceed the load capacity of the car, as this will alter its handling characteristics (see page 280). A load-through hatch is incorporated in the rear seat backrest to enable long, narrow items to be carried inside the car. Before loading or unloading long items, switch off the engine and apply the parking brake. This avoids the danger of the car moving off if a long item were to knock the gear or selector lever into gear. • Fold down the armrest and open the hatch by lifting the handle. There is a lock on the rear side of the hatch. Use this to lock or unlock the hatch. To lock: Open the hatch and lock the lock. Close the hatch. The hatch is now locked. To unlock: Fold down the wide section of the backrest and unlock the lock. Alternatively, you can unlock the hatch from the trunk.
