Storage Loading cargo on the roof rack will make the center of the vehicle gravity higher. Avoid high speeds, sudden starts, sharp turns, sudden braking or abrupt maneuvers, otherwise it may result in loss of control or vehicle rollover due to failure to operate the vehicle correctly. If driving for a long distance, on rough roads, or at high speeds, stop the vehicle now and then during the trip to make sure the cargo remains in its place. 3-3 Floor Mats The driver side floor mat is held in place by two locator hooks. The floor mat must be properly placed on the floor so that it does not block the movement of the accelerator pedal. To reinstall the floor mat, line up the openings in the floor mat over the locator hooks and push down into place. Hooks There are hooks for hanging items in the cabin, luggage compartment, and in the cargo management system, if the vehicle has one. On the front passenger side, press the hook to open and use it. There is a weight limit of 44 lb (20 kg). The luggage compartment hooks should only be used to hang items under 7 lb (3 kg). For vehicles with a cargo management system, open the deck lid to hang items under 5 lb (2.3 kg). How to Remove and Replace the Floor Mat Driver Storage Compartment The driver storage compartment is located near the left side of the steering column on the bottom of the instrument panel. Pull up on the lever to open the cover. To remove the floor mat, pull up on the rear of the mat to disconnect it from the locator hooks.
