NOTE:
Close the rear flip-up window before attempting to close
the swing gate (hard top models only).

cleaning if a squeak can be heard when opening the swing
gate. Progressive accumulation on the check strap arm

CARGO AREA FEATURES
Trail Rail Cargo Organizer — If Equipped
If your vehicle is equipped with the Trail Rail system, a rail
will be found built into the floor on either side of the cargo
area. Each rail contains an adjustable anchor loop that
can be used to secure cargo. The position of the
adjustable anchor loop can be adjusted by sliding the loop
along the rail.
To adjust the anchor loop, push down on the center button
while sliding the loop along the rail to the desired position.
Release the button and move the loop slightly to the next
fixed position in the notches of the rail.

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. Do not
fully open and rest the hood on the windshield.
WARNING!
Driving with the flip-up window open can allow
poisonous exhaust gases into your vehicle. You and
your passengers could be injured by these fumes. Keep
the flip-up window closed when you are operating the
vehicle.
CAUTION!
Do not push on rear wiper blade when closing the rear
flip-up window, as damage to the blade will result.
