Always position and secure the
load correctly. If you do not, it can
endanger the passengers, e.g. simply
during braking or evasive maneuvers.
Do not exceed the permissible gross
vehicle weight and the permissible axle
loads, refer to page 170. If you do, the
operating safety of the vehicle is no
longer ensured and you are in violation
of the law.
Do not carry hard or heavy objects
unsecured in the passenger compart-
ment. If you do so, they may be pro-
jected through the air, e.g. simply
during braking and evasive maneuvers,
thus endangering vehicle occupants.<
