Electrical Outlet Use With Engine Off
CAUTION!
²Many accessories that can be plugged in draw
power from the vehicle's battery, even when not
in use (i.e. cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if
plugged in long enough, the vehicle's battery will
discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life
and/or prevent engine starting.
²Accessories that draw higher power (i.e. coolers,
vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.); will degrade the
battery even more quickly. Only use these inter-
mittently and with greater caution.
²After the use of high power draw accessories, or
long periods of the vehicle not being started (with
accessories still plugged in), the vehicle must be
driven a sufficient length of time to allow the
alternator to recharge the vehicle's battery.
²Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs
only. Do not hang any type of accessory or acces-
sory bracket from the plug. Improper use of the
power outlet can cause damage.

Cargo Management System Ð If Equipped
The cargo area has an upper and lower load floor.
Additional innovative features in the cargo area are the
two molded-in bins in the quarter trim panels. Each bin
will hold a gallon of milk and a 2-liter bottle of pop.
A cargo management system that stores on the lower
load floor below the bi-level cargo floor is optional. It
includes the following equipment:
²Waterproof cargo floor liner.
²Folding cargo management container with net separa-
tors.
The bi-level cargo floor includes a removable, tri-fold
load-bearing upper level. Two folds in the panel allow it
to be partially or fully folded for storage flexibility.
Shallow items can be stored underneath the upper load
floor.
The lower load floor is hinged to provide access to the
spare tire (if equipped), battery, and rear electrical power
distribution center.The 60/40 split-folding rear seat provides cargo-carrying
versatility. The seatbacks fold down easily by pulling
nylon tabs between the seatbacks and the bolsters. When
the seats are folded down, they provide a continuous,
nearly flat extension of the removable tri-fold load floor.
Tri-Fold Upper Load Floor
The removable tri-fold upper load floor has two different
surfaces for increased utility. One side is carpeted for a
plush appearance and the other side is covered with
vinyl for easy cleaning. The panel, sandwiched between
the carpet and the washable-vinyl, is constructed from a
strong lightweight material that gives the floor its load-
bearing strength.
You can place the load floor in a partially folded position,
a fully folded position, or a flat position. You can also
remove it from the vehicle. Folding and/or removing the
load floor will add four inches to the height of the cargo
area for increased utility. Use the handle to adjust the
position of the load floor. The load floor positions are
shown in the following illustrations.
