TITLE: FMVSS INTERPRETATION

TEXT: This is in reply to your letter of November 29, 1972, concerning the method in which a load is to be "secured in the luggage area" under the test procedures of Standard 208. I apologize for our delay.

The intent of S8.1.1(a) is to place the load in the luggage area in such a way that it stays there during the test. The standard does not specify the manner in which the load is secured. A manufacturer may secure it in any reasonable manner.
