Note
In some vehicle models, design considerations have made it necessary to have openings
in the glove compartment behind the owner's manual slot, for example. Small items
may fall through these openings and get behind the instrument panel. This can cause
unusual noises and damage the vehicle. Never put any small objects in the glove
compartment for this reason.
