Cargo Tie Downs

You may store items in the cargo area of your vehicle.

Convenience Net

You may have a convenience net in the rear of your vehicle to help keep small items, like gloves and

light clothing, in place during sharp turns or quick stops and starts.

The net is not designed to retain these items during off-road use. The net is not for larger, heavier items.

Attach the upper loops to the retainers on both sides of the tailgate opening. The label should be in the upper passenger’s side corner, visible from the rear of

the vehicle. Attach the lower hooks to the rear cargo tie-downs on the floor.

There are three cargo tie downs in the rear of your vehicle that allow you

to strap in cargo and keep it from moving.
