Rear Storage Area; Convenience Net - GMC Yukon Denali 2006 Manual

Be sure the cargo is properly loaded.
•
If small heavy objects are placed on the roof, place
the load in the area over the rear wheels (behind the
rear side door on Yukon XL Denali models). If you
need to, cut a piece of 3/8 inch plywood to fit inside
the crossrails and siderails to spread the load.
If plywood is used, tie it to the siderail supports.
•
Tie the load to the crossrails or the siderail supports.
Use the crossrails only to keep the load from sliding.
To move the crossrails, pull out on the latch release
handle at each end. Slide the crossrail to the desired
position balancing the force side to side. Push the
release handle back into the latched position and
slide the crossrail back and forth slightly to be sure
the latch snaps securely into place.
•
If you need to carry long items, move the crossrails
as far apart as they will go. Tie the load to the
crossrails and the siderails or siderail supports. Also
tie the load to the bumpers. Do not tie the load so
tightly that the crossrails or siderails are damaged.
•
For the purpose of wind noise reduction, locate the
front crossrail approximately 18 to 24 inches
(46 to 58 cm) rearward of the front supports.
•
After moving a crossrail, be sure it is securely locked
into the siderail.

Your vehicle has a Center High-Mounted Stoplamp
(CHMSL) located above the rear glass. If items
are loaded on the roof of the vehicle, care should be
taken not to block or damage the CHMSL unit.

Rear Storage Area

Your vehicle may have a storage compartment located
in the rear cargo area of the vehicle in the driver's
side trim panel.
To open the utility compartment, press in on the release
latch and swing the compartment door open.
To open the compartment on extended models, pull the
latch to access.

Convenience Net

The convenience net (if equipped) in the rear of your
vehicle helps to keep small loads in place during sharp
turns or quick stops and starts.
The net is not designed for larger, heavier items.
To install the net, attach the hooks to the raised cargo
tie downs. Then, attach the cord loops to the button
retainers in the side trim.
You can unhook the net so that it will lie flat when
you're not using it.
