Before loading the car, turn off the engine, and apply the parking brake when loading or unloading long objects. The gear selector can be inadvertently knocked out of position by long cargo, causing the car to move. Keep the following in mind when loading the vehicle: Load the cargo in the cargo area against the rear seat backrest. Load heavy cargo as low as possible. Center wide loads. Secure all cargo with restraining straps anchored to the load securing eyelets. Cover sharp edges on the load. WARNING Remember that an object weighing 44 lbs (20 kg) produces a force of 2,200 lbs (1,000 kg) in a head-on collision at 30 m.p.h. (50 km/h)! When the rear backrest(s) are folded down, the vehicle should not be loaded to a level higher than 2 in. (5 cm) below the upper edge of the rear side windows. Objects placed higher than this level could impede the function of the Volvo Inflatable Curtain. 159 06 Starting and driving Blind Spot Information System (BLIS)-option Introduction
