All-Weather Cargo Area
Your vehicle has the ability to operate in many different
con®gurations (midgate up or down, rear glass up or
down, tailgate up or down, power roof open or closed),
allowing the cargo and passenger area to be open
to the environment. To allow the vehicle to operate in
these con®gurations, it is equipped with different
features to help it resist the elements and protect cargo
inside the cargo area. Some of the features that help
with this are the cargo area ¯oor drains and the
cargo mat. These are designed to quickly direct water
out of the cargo box.
Cargo Area Floor Drains
Your vehicle has two cargo-area ¯oor drains located
behind the midgate near the sides of the cargo
area. These drains should be cleaned periodically to
allow water to exit the cargo area.
After hauling dirt, wood chips, pebbles etc. you will need
to ¯ush the cargo area ¯oor drains with water if it
becomes clogged. But ®rst you will have to remove the
drain cover by using the following steps:
1. Lower the midgate.
2. Lift the midgate ¯ap to access the cargo area ¯oor
drain covers.3. Remove the push pin found in the top surface of
the ¯oor drain cover.
4. Lift each ¯oor drain cover straight up.
Reverse the procedure to reinstall the drain covers.
