Cargo tie-down rings

Observe the following notes on securing loads:

  • secure the load using the cargo tie down rings.
  • do not use elastic straps or nets to secure a load, as these are only intended as an anti-slip protection for light loads.
  • do not route tie downs across sharp edges or corners.
  • pad sharp edges for protection. 

There are four cargo tie down rings in the cargo compartment and two in the rearcompartment footwells.
