Loose objects may be flung through the vehicle interior in the event of a sudden driving or braking manoeuvre. This can cause serious injury and can also lead to loss of control of the vehicle.

• Do not stow any pets or any hard, heavy or sharp objects in the vehicle's open stowage compartments, on the dash panel, on the shelf behind the rear seats, or in items of clothing and bags in the vehicle interior.

• Always keep stowage compartments closed while the vehicle is in motion.

Objects in the driver footwell can hinder pedal operation. This can lead to loss of control of the vehicle and increase the risk of serious injury.

• Please ensure that all pedals can always be operated without any hindrance.

• The foot mats must always be properly secured in the footwell.

• No additional foot mats or other floor coverings should be placed over the fitted foot mat.

• Ensure that no objects can enter the driver footwell while the vehicle is in motion.

NOTICE

• Hard objects on the shelf can chafe against the wires of the heating element in the rear window and cause damage.

• Do not store any heat-sensitive objects, food or medicines inside the vehicle. Hot and cold temperatures could damage them or render them unusable.

• Objects stored in the vehicle that are made from transparent materials, such as glasses, magnifying glasses or transparent suction cups on the windows, can concentrate the sun's rays and thus cause damage to the vehicle.
