Luggage compartment cover (5-door)

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 firmly secured. If it is not firmly
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.
