People in the vehicle could be injured.
Whenever you store the rear glass in the
vehicle, always be sure that it is stored
securely in the Midgate
®storage pocket.
Do not remove the rear glass when the rear
defroster is on. If you do, you may see a
discharge spark coming from the glass
latch area.
To remove the rear glass do the following: 1. Make sure that the midgate defroster is turned off.
2. Fold the rear seats. See Rear Seats049.
The front seats may have to be moved
forward slightly to allow the rear seats

without folding the rear seats, you will
not be able to access the rear glass
storage pocket. Be sure to fold the seats
before removing the rear glass.
3. Squeeze and pull down the glass latch
levers (A), located near the upper corners
of the rear glass, to unlatch. Once
unlatched, the glass-catch release
button (C) will catch the rear glass and
prevent it from falling forward.

Lowering the Midgate with the Rear
Glass in Place
The midgate can be lowered to allow the
cargo area of your vehicle to extend into
the cab. The rear glass can be either
installed in its normal position, or it can be
removed and stored in the rear glass
storage pocket.
To lower the midgate:

Midgate Lowered with Crossbar Attached
This procedure works the same as the
procedure described previously, but when
you lower the midgate with the rear glass
in the stored position, you will notice that
the entire crossbar will lower with the
midgate. This is completely normal;
however, since the crossbar lowers with the
midgate, it will be heavier. As you lower the
midgate be ready for the extra weight and
do not let the midgate fall as you lower it.
Raising the Midgate
To return the midgate to its normal
position:
1. Temporarily secure the seatbelt buckle to the opening slot in the door trim to
move it out of the path of the midgate.
2. Raise the midgate up with a firm swinging motion until it latches into
place securely. This will help to ensure
that the midgate closes with enough
force to engage the latches.
3. Once the midgate is securely latched, release the seatbelt buckle from the slot
in the door trim. If the rear glass is removed and you would
like to put it back, do so using the
instructions given previously.
Tailgate
Manual Tailgate
{Warning
It is extremely dangerous to ride on the
tailgate, even when the vehicle is
operated at low speeds. People riding on
the tailgate can easily lose their balance
and fall in response to vehicle maneuvers.
Falling from a moving vehicle may result
in serious injuries or death. Do not allow
people to ride on the tailgate. Be sure
everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and
using a seat belt properly.
Use the remote key to unlock the tailgate.
Open the tailgate by lifting up on its handle
while pulling the tailgate down.
To shut the tailgate, firmly push it upward
until it latches.
After closing the tailgate, pull it back to be
sure it is latched securely.
