WARNING

  Do not place anything on top of the 
cover:

  Placing luggage or other cargo on top 
of the luggage compartment cover is 
dangerous. During sudden braking or 
a collision, the cargo could become 
a projectile that could hit and injure 
someone. The vehicle has a light 
weight luggage compartment cover to 
keep the contents of your luggage area 
out of sight; it will not retain heavy 
objects that are not tied down in an 
accident such as a rollover. Tie down 
all heavy objects, whether luggage or 
cargo, using the tie down hooks.
  

  Make sure luggage and cargo are 
secured before driving:

  Not securing cargo while driving is 
dangerous as it could move or be 
crushed during sudden braking or a 
collision and cause injury.

CAUTION

  Make sure the luggage compartment 
cover is fi rmly secured. If it is not 
fi rmly secured, it could unexpectedly 
disengage resulting in injury.

  The luggage compartment can be accessed 
by opening the liftgate when the straps are 
attached to the sides of the liftgate.
