Cadillac 2009 owner manual All-Weather Cargo Area, Cargo Tie Downs

Cargo Tie Downs

Cargo tie downs in the rear cargo area can be used to secure cargo.

All-Weather Cargo Area

The vehicle’s cargo area can be used in many different configurations — cargo panels on or off, Midgate®

up or down, rear window in or out. It has features that help resist the elements and help protect cargo. It

is designed to quickly direct water through the top drain grates, side rail channels, catch cups, Midgate® drain, cargo area floor drains and the rubber cargo mat.

Even when all of these things are working properly and the cover system is on, there may be some instances (heavy rains, automated car washes, etc.) when water can collect in the following areas:

A. Top drain grates	E. Water drainage
B. Removable front	area around
drain grate	both sides of the
(Midgate® drain	cargo box and
grate)	tailgate side
C. Side rail channels	F. Rear drains
and catch cups	G. Cargo floor
D. Front drains	H. Cargo mat
