WARNING

•

Fuel is extremely flammable and highly explo-

sive under certain conditions. You could be

burned or seriously injured if it is misused or

mishandled. Always stop the engine and do

not smoke or allow open flames or sparks

near the vehicle when refuelling.

•

Fuel may be under pressure. Turn the cap a

half of a turn, and wait for any “hissing” sound

to stop to prevent fuel from spraying out and

possibly causing personal injury. Then remove

the cap.

•

Use only an original equipment type fuel filler

cap as a replacement. It has a built-in safety

valve needed for proper operation of the fuel

system and emission control system. An in-

correct cap can result in a serious malfunc-

tion and possible injury.

OPENING FUEL FILLER LID

Type A

The fuel filler cap is a ratcheting type. Turn the cap

anticlockwise

➀

until ratchet clicks, more than twice, after

refuelling.
Put the fuel filler cap on the cap holder

A while

refuelling.
CAUTION
If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body, flush it away

with water to avoid paint damage.

WARNING

•

While driving, never allow anyone to ride in

the cargo area. Abrupt braking or stopping

could lead to personal injury or death.

•

Do not drive the vehicle with the tailgate down.

•

Properly secure all cargo with ropes or straps

to help prevent it from sliding or shifting. In a

sudden stop or collision, unsecured cargo

could cause personal injury.

TAILGATE
Locking or unlocking tailgate

(where fitted)

To lock the tailgate, insert the key to the tailgate key

cylinder and turn the key clockwise

➀

To unlock the tailgate, turn the key anticlockwise

➁

For Remote Control Key equipped models, see

“Mechanical key” earlier in this section for removing

the mechanical key.

Opening the tailgate

To open the tailgate, pull the tailgate handle

➀

and

lower the tailgate. The support wires will hold the

gate open.

•

The weight of the cargo load must be evenly dis-

tributed over both the front and the rear axles.

•

All cargo should be securely fastened with ropes

or straps to prevent it from shifting or sliding

within the vehicle.

WARNING

•

Do not drive the vehicle with the tailgate down.

•

While driving, never allow anyone to ride in

the cargo area. Abrupt braking or stopping

could lead to personal injury or death.

CARGO BED (where fitted)

3-20

Pre-driving checks and adjustments

Closing the tailgate

When closing the tailgate, make sure that the latches

or levers are securely locked.

TIE DOWN HOOKS (where fitted)

For your convenience, four tie down hooks are

placed on the inside of the cargo bed. These may be

used to help secure cargo loaded into the cargo

bed.

•

The weight of the cargo load must be evenly dis-

tributed over both the front and rear axles.

•

All cargo should be securely fastened with ropes

or straps to prevent it from shifting or sliding

within the vehicle.

C-CHANNEL SYSTEM (where fitted)

WARNING

•

Properly install and tighten the tie-down cleats

into the C-Channel system. Also, do not at-

tach any rope or straps directly to the chan-

nel. Failure to properly install the tie-down

cleats or attaching ropes or straps directly to

the channel can cause the cargo to become

unsecured. In a sudden stop or collision, un-

secured cargo could cause personal injury.

•

Properly secure all cargo with ropes or straps

to help prevent it from sliding or shifting. In a

sudden stop or collision, unsecured cargo

could cause personal injury.

•

Do not place cargo higher than the seatbacks.

In a sudden stop or collision, unsecured cargo

could cause personal injury.

•

Overloading not only can shorten the life of

your vehicle and the tyre, but can also cause

unsafe vehicle handling and longer braking

distances. This may cause a premature tyre

failure which could result in a serious acci-

dent and personal injury. Failures caused by

overloading are not covered by the vehicle’s

warranty.

•

Do not install accessories over the gap be-

tween the front and rear side channels. Doing

so could affect the rear structure in certain

rear impacts, which could result in serious

injury.

The C-Channel system allows you to move tie-down

clamps in the bed to the best location to secure a

load.
The tie-down cleats must be installed so the clamp

is properly seated in the notches in the rail. If the tie-

down cleat is not seated in the notches, it will not be

properly tightened. The bolt in the centre of the cleat

must be securely tightened.
Check the tightness of the tie-down cleat periodi-

cally during a trip to make sure the centre bolt has

not become loose.

➀

Side channels

Install the tie-down cleat as follows:
1. Loosen the centre bolt completely.

2. Insert the cleat into the channel perpendicular to

the channel as shown. Then rotate the cleat

clockwise 90º and slide it to desired location.

3. Position the cleat so the nubs on the bottom fully

seat into the channel detents.

4. There should be no gap between the bottom of

the cleat and the top of the channel. Securely

tighten the centre bolt.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments

CAUTION

•

Install only one cleat per section of channel.

•

Applying loads at angles to the cleats that are

greater than 45° or loads greater than 90 kg

(200 lb) may cause damage to the channel or

the bed.

brake is fully applied.

•

To help avoid risk of injury or death through

unintended operation of the vehicle and/or its

systems, do not leave children, people who

require the assistance of others, or pets unat-

tended in your vehicle. Additionally, the tem-

perature inside a closed vehicle on a warm

day can quickly become high enough to cause

a significant risk of injury or death to people

and pets.
