Caution: If any removable convenience item is not secured properly, it can move around in a collision or sudden stop. People in the vehicle could be injured. Be sure to secure any such item properly.

If your vehicle has the convenience system, it is located in the rear of your vehicle. It provides a place to store loose items in your vehicle.

  2. Anchor Bracket/Cargo Tie-Down Plugs

  3. Partitions

  4. Soda Pop/Gallon Jug Holder

  5. Partition Storage

  6. Cargo Tie-Down Cutouts

To increase the space in the convenience system, do the following:

  1. Pull up on the individual partitions (C) to remove them. Storage for the partitions is located in area (E).
  2. Fold the collapsible dividers (A) by pulling upward and folding the dividers toward each other.

To reinstall or rearrange the partitions, push down gently on the partitions making sure both sides fit into the appropriate slots of the collapsible dividers (A).

Located on the top of each collapsible divider (A) are T-pins designed to hold grocery bags, etc., in an upright position.

The anchor bracket/cargo tie down plugs (B), located in the center and on each side of the convenience system nearest the passenger compartment, are used to help seal the convenience system. However, the plugs also cover the anchor bracket/cargo tie-downs. To remove the plugs, grasp the edges of the plugs and pull straight out. See Child Restraint Systems and Top Strap for more information on using anchor brackets.

There are two cutouts (F) for the rear cargo tie-downs located near the tailgate. In order to access the rear cargo tie-downs, the cutouts must be removed.

You will also find a soda pop/gallon jug holder (D) on the passenger side of the convenience system. Some vehicles do not have this feature, but instead include a smaller storage area.

To remove the entire convenience system, do the following:

  1. Remove the convenience net if it is in place. See Convenience Net for more information. You may also want to remove the partitions (C) and fold the collapsible dividers (A) to make the convenience system easier to handle.
  2. Grasp the sides of the convenience system and push the sides together while sliding the unit out until it clears the sides of the tailgate opening.

To reinstall the convenience system, reverse the removal procedure.
