Upper illustration: hooks correctly installed, Lower
illustration: hooks incorrectly installed
It is important to insert the hooks correctly in
the rails. The hooks' openings should point
away from each other.
•
The opening on the hook closest to the rear
seat backrest should point toward the
backrest.
•
The opening on the hook closest to the
tailgate should point toward the tailgate.
WARNING
The hooks must be installed correctly in the
rail. Incorrectly installed hooks will be folded
down by the strap, allowing them to move.
The load will then no longer be securely
anchored.
