Opel Corsa: Storage / Loading information

- Heavy objects in the load
compartment should be placed
against the seat backrests. Make
sure that the backrests are
securely engaged. If objects can
be stacked, heavier objects
should be placed at the bottom.
- Prevent sliding of loose objects
by securing them with straps
attached to the lashing eyes.
- Do not allow the load to protrude
above the upper edge of the
backrests.
- Do not place any objects on the
load compartment cover or the
instrument panel, and do not
cover the sensor on top of the
instrument panel.
- The load must not obstruct the
operation of the pedals, parking
brake and gear selector, or
hinder the freedom of movement
of the driver. Do not place any
unsecured objects in the interior.
- Do not drive with an open load
compartment.
Warning
Always make sure that the load in
the vehicle is securely stowed.
Otherwise objects can be thrown
around inside the vehicle and
cause personal injury or damage
to the load or car.
- The payload is the difference
between the permitted gross
vehicle weight (see identification
plate) and the EC kerb
weight.
To calculate the payload, enter
the data for your vehicle in the
weights table at the front of this
manual.
The EC kerb weight includes
weights for the driver (68 kg),
luggage (7 kg) and all fluids (fuel
tank 90% full).
Optional equipment and
accessories increase the kerb
weight.
- Driving with a roof load increases
the sensitivity of the vehicle to
cross-winds and has a
detrimental effect on vehicle
handling due to the vehicle's
higher centre of gravity.
Distribute the load evenly and
secure it properly with retaining
straps. Adjust the tyre pressure
and vehicle speed according to
the load conditions. Check and
retighten the straps frequently.
Do not drive faster than
120 km/h.
The permissible roof load is
70 kg. Do not exceed a loading
height of 40 cm. The roof load is
the combined weight of the roof
rack and the load.
Roof rack
For safety reasons and to avoid
damage to the roof, the vehicle
approved roof rack system is
recommended. For further
information, contact your workshop...
