Controls in detail Loading When not in use, you can attach the cover blind extensions to the cover blind. Cargo net* Use of the cargo net is a particularly important safety factor when the vehicle is loaded higher than the top of the seat backrests with smaller objects. For your safety, always use the cargo net when transporting cargo. The cargo net can be installed in two locations: Warning! G Make sure the cargo net is properly engaged at top and bottom position and the tightening belts are securely fastened. Never use a damaged cargo net. To help avoid personal injury from smaller objects being thrown around in the occupant compartment during a collision or sudden maneuver, always use cargo net when transporting cargo. The cargo net cannot prevent the movement of large, heavier objects into the passenger compartment in an accident. Such items must be properly secured using the cargo tie-down rings in the cargo compartment floor ( page 290). Passenger use of seats behind installed cargo net is restricted because of the footwell being taken up by the net. 5 Extension guide rail 6 Mounting With the cargo compartment cover installed behind third-row seats, insert extension guide rail 5 into mounting 6.
