front end of the cargo bed. Keep those holes clear and
free from obstructions.

Cargo tie-down hooks

The cargo bed is equipped with four tie-down hooks so
that cargo can be secured with a luggage net or ropes.

Bed extender (if equipped)

The bed extender is designed to increase the usable
cargo area of the bed.
When the tailgate and bed extender are in the
"open/outward" position, the license plate
bracket must be lowered and locked into posi-
tion before the vehicle is driven (see section
"License plate bracket" under the heading of
"Tailgate" in chapter 2 for more information on
the function of the license plate bracket). In or-
der to avoid damaging the license plate bracket
or the bumper, make certain that the license
plate bracket is in its fully lowered/open posi-

tion before the tailgate is lowered.
Do not exceed the cargo load rating of your
vehicle. Refer to "Loading your vehicle" sec-
tion in chapter 8.
Locking buckles must be engaged into the
tailgate latch while the vehicle is in motion.
When the bed extender is not in use, the tail-
gate should be closed.
Do not use the bed extender or tailgate to se-
cure cargo.
