OPENING
To open the tailgate, lift up on the handle and

CLOSING
To close the tailgate, push it upward until both
sides are latched.
The tailgate can be locked using the key fob

WARNING!
Be sure the hood is fully latched before
driving your vehicle. If the hood is not fully
latched, it could open when the vehicle is in
motion and block your vision. Failure to follow
this warning could result in serious injury or
death.
CAUTION!
To prevent possible damage, do not slam the
hood to close it. Use a firm downward push at
the front center of the hood to ensure that
both latches engage.
