WARNING
D Never allow passengers to ride on the folded rear seatback in
the trunk or in the cargo area. Doing so may result in serious in-
jury.
D Never stack luggage or other cargo higher than the top of the
seatback because it could tumble forward and injure passengers
in the event of a sudden stop or accident. Keep luggage or cargo
low, as close to the floor as possible.
D When you carry something inside the vehicle, secure it when-
ever you can to prevent it from being thrown around inside the
vehicle during sudden stops, sharp turns or in an accident.
D Do not pile heavy loads on the roof. These loads raise the
vehicle’s center of gravity and make it more prone to tip over.
D Secure skis and other lengthy items properly to prevent them
from shooting forward and causing serious injury during a sud-
den stop.
D Never exceed the maximum load limit. If you do, some parts on
your vehicle can break, or it can change the way your vehicle
handles. This could result in loss of control and cause personal
injury. Also, overloading can shorten the life of your vehicle.
D Do not place anything on the rear shelf behind the rear seat-
back (for sedan and coupe) or the extended luggage cover (for
wagon and OUTBACK SPORT). Such items could tumble forward
in the event of a sudden stop or a collision. This could cause
serious injury.
CAUTION
Do not carry spray cans, containers with flammable or corrosive
liquids or any other dangerous items inside the vehicle.
NOTE
For better fuel economy, do not carry unneeded cargo.
