WARNING
•
Boxes, suitcases, etc. wedged behind
the front seats could impede the func-
tion of the WHIPS system.
•
If the rear seat backrests are folded
down, cargo must be secured to pre-
vent it from sliding forward against the
front seat backrests in the event of a
collision from the rear. This could
interfere with the action of the WHIPS
system.
WARNING
Any contact between the front seat back-
rests and the folded rear seat or a rear-
facing child seat could impede the function
of the WHIPS system. If the rear seat is
folded down, the occupied front seats
must be adjusted forward so that they do
not touch the folded rear seat.
