the vehicle. Load cargo only on top of the crossrails
and tie the cargo down to the crossrail support
cargo tie-down loops, making sure to fasten
it securely.

Cargo Tie Downs (SUT)
There are four oval shaped openings (A) in the cargo
bed that allow access to four tie downs. The tie
downs can be used to secure cargo.
All-Weather Cargo Area (SUT)
The vehicle has features to help it resist the elements
and protect cargo inside the cargo area.
Even when the water management system is working
properly and the cover system is on, there can be
instances when water may be present in the drain holes.
See “Cargo Area Floor Drains” later in this section for
more information.
Removal and Cleaning
To ensure that the water management system performs
properly, make sure that the midgate, tailgate and cover
system are fully closed and that each part of the water
management system is clean and not blocked with
debris. Follow the instructions given next in this section
for the proper procedures on cleaning each part of the
water management system.

Side Rail Channels
Both side rail channels are located on top of the roof
and the cargo area. Flush them out with clean water if
debris collects inside of them.
When loading cargo into the cargo area, be careful not
to damage the rails.
For more information on this feature seeLuggage
Carrier on page 2-65.
Cargo Area Floor Drains
For vehicles with a cargo mat, located under it are
four cargo-area oor drains (A) near the sides of the
cargo area. These drains should be cleaned periodically
to allow water to exit the cargo area.
The cargo mat has cutouts for the drains. Flush the
drains through the cutouts, but if the cargo area is
extremely dirty lift up the edges of the cargo oor mat or
take the whole mat out and ush the drains with water.
The drain grates can be removed to clear any debris that
has accumulated in the drain.

a power sliding sunroof.
The ignition must be

SeeRetained Accessory Power (RAP) on page 2-29.

the rear of the switch quickly once more.
Express close:To close the sunroof, press the front
of the switch quickly and release.
Vent:The vent position allows the rear of the sunroof
to be opened and tilted upward. With the sunroof in
the fully closed position, press and hold the front of
the switch until the sunroof reaches the desired vent
position or until it stops moving. To close the sunroof
from the vent position, press and hold the rear of the
switch until the sunroof is fully closed.
Do not leave the sunroof open for long periods of time
as debris may collect in the tracks.

Anti-Pinch Protection Feature
If something gets caught between the glass panel
and roof frame while the sunroof is closing, the glass
panel will stop and open half way, and the deector
will raise fully.
If something gets caught between the glass panel
and the roof frame during the tilt down operation,
the glass panel will stop and open fully.
If the sunroof panel receives a strong impact, the
anti-pinch protection feature may work even if nothing
gets caught between the glass panel and roof frame.
Sunshade Operation
The sunshade will open automatically when opening the
sunroof.
However, it can manually be pulled shut after the
sunroof is closed. To adjust the sunshade, push it
backward or pull it forward to the desired position.
The sunshade cannot be adjusted further than
the current closed position of the sunroof.
Notice:If you force the sunshade forward of the
sliding glass panel, damage will occur and the
sunroof may not open or close properly. Always
close the glass panel before closing the sunshade.
