Side mounted tool bins:Watertight bins can be positioned at any point
along the side rails and can be easily removed (even when full), and
carried to wherever the contents are needed. Each bin will hold up to
60 lb (27 kg) of cargo, and has a drain plug for use as a cooler.Note:
When multiple bins are placed on one side of the pickup box, the total
cargo weight in all bins on that side of the pickup box cannot exceed 60
lb (27 kg).
•To access the lock, pull the tab at the base of the rubber cap to
uncover the lock. When you are done with the lock always reinstall
the rubber cap on the lock to ensure proper sealing. When the bin is
unlocked the rubber cap does not need to be removed to open the
bin, just press the rubber cap to unlatch the lid.
•The lock cylinder is keyed to the first ignition key to be turned in the
lock. This allows one key to work all bins, even if more are ordered
through the dealer. The dealer will usually key the locks during
pre-delivery, but if necessary, simply remove the sticker covering the
keyhole, insert ignition key and turn to the extent of travel in each
direction. This key will then be the only key to unlock the bin.
•Once the key has been set, simply turn the key to the right to lock, or
to the left to unlock. When locked, the push-button will not depress
when pushed.

If a remote transmitter has been lost and you would like to remove it
from the vehicle’s memory, or you would like to purchase additional
remote transmitters and have them programmed to your vehicle:
•Takeallyour vehicle’s transmitters to your authorized dealer for
programming, or
•Perform the programming procedure yourself.
Programming remote transmitters
It is necessary to haveall(maximum of six — original and/or new) of
your remote transmitters available prior to beginning this procedure. If
all remote entry transmitters are not present during the programming
procedure, the transmitters that are not present during programming will
no longer operate the vehicle.
To program the transmitters yourself:
Note:Ensure the brake pedal is not
depressed during this sequence.
•Unlock all doors using the power
door lock/unlock control. Insert a
key and turn the ignition from
the 1 (OFF/LOCK) to the 3 (ON)
position and cycle between 1
