Your vehicle is equipped with a barrier net.

When loading certain cargo on the rear seat or in the rear cargo area, you must install the barrier net behind the back of the front or rear seat.

It is designed to protect passengers' heads by blocking objects that fly forward in a frontal collision.

There are eight hook holders: two on each side of the headliner above the head restraints for upper side fixing, and four on the floor behind the front or rear seats for lower side fixing.

To install the barrier net:

WARNING

  • Make sure there is no sag in the barrier net when securing the straps. Make sure the hooks are firmly inserted into the upper hook holders when installing the net. The strap must be fastened after confirming that the hook is securely inserted into the upper hook holder.
  • Make sure the seatbacks are securely locked.

WARNING

  • Do not sit in the rear seat or cargo area behind the barrier net.
  • Do not ride in the rear center seat when the barrier net is installed behind the rear seat. The barrier net may interfere with the use of the rear center seat belt.
  • Do not load cargo in this area above the upper limit of the barrier net.
  • Do not load heavy cargo in the area above the seatback to avoid an accident, even if the barrier net is installed.
  • Do not load cargo with sharp edges that could penetrate the barrier net.
  • Do not apply excessive force to the barrier net, such as by hanging heavy cargo from the net or suspending heavy cargo from it.

To remove the barrier net:

1. Loosen the straps using the strap adjusters and remove the strap hooks from the hook holders.

2. Remove the upper net shaft by pulling it through the large holes.

3. Remove the barrier net.
