UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 319 Cargo Extension Panels Cargo extension panels can be folded and unfolded. When the rear seats are moved to the more forward positions and the rear seat backs are folded down, the extension panels can be unfolded manually by hand (2 of them). The extension panels can be used to extend the load floor to the rear seats and/or hide the gap between the load floor and rear seats, or to assist in loading large items into the cargo area. Cargo Tie-Down Hooks And Loops The tie-downs located on the cargo area floor should be used to secure loads safely when the vehicle is moving. Cargo tie-down loops are located on the trim panels. WARNING! • Cargo tie-downs are not safe anchors for a child seat tether strap. In a sudden stop or accident, a tie-down could pull loose and allow the child seat to come loose. A child could be badly injured. Use only the anchors provided for child seat tethers. • To help protect against personal injury, passengers should not be seated in the rear cargo area. The rear cargo space is intended for load carrying purposes only, not for passengers, who should sit in seats and use seat belts. 3
