WARNING
Distribute the load on the cargo tie down rings
evenly.
Otherwise, vehicle occupants could be injured by objects being thrown around if you: • brake sharply • change direction suddenly • are involved in an accident
Please observe the loading guidelines.
Observe the following notes on securing
loads:

• do not route tie-downs across sharp edges or corners.
• pad sharp edges for protection.
• only use tie downs that have been checked in accordance with applicable standards, e.g. lashing nets or lashing straps.
• fill the spaces between the load and the cargo compartment walls and the wheel mountings in a form-locking way. Only use dimensionally stable transportation aids for this, such as chocks, wooden fixings or padding.
