also be located in the second and third row seat
armrest areas.
Press down and release the access door latch button to

3-62

Center Console Storage
A console compartment is located between the bucket
seats.
Press the button on the front of the console and swing
the console cover to open it.
An accessory power outlet may be located inside the
console. SeeAccessory Power Outlet(s) on page 4‑16.
The rear of the console also has a cupholder that
swings down for the rear seat passengers.
Roof Rack System
{WARNING:
If something is carried on top of the vehicle that is
longer or wider than the roof rack— like paneling,
plywood, or a mattress— the wind can catch it
while the vehicle is being driven. The item being
carried could be violently torn off, and this could
cause a collision, and damage the vehicle. Never
carry something longer or wider than the roof rack
on top of the vehicle unless using a GM Certified
accessory carrier. For vehicles with a roof rack, the rack can be used to
load items. For roof racks that do not have crossrails
included, GM Certified crossrails can be purchased as
an accessory. See your dealer/retailer for additional
information.
Notice:
Loading cargo on the roof rack that weighs
more than 91 kg (200 lbs) or hangs over the rear or
sides of the vehicle may damage the vehicle. Load
cargo so that it rests evenly between the crossrails,
making sure to fasten cargo securely.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo when driving,
check to make sure crossrails and cargo are securely
fastened. Loading cargo on the roof rack will make the
vehicle’s center of gravity higher. Avoid high speeds,
sudden starts, sharp turns, sudden braking or abrupt
maneuvers, otherwise it may result in loss of control.
If driving for a long distance, on rough roads, or at high
speeds, occasionally stop the vehicle to make sure the
cargo remains in its place.
3-63

Don't exceed the maximum vehicle capacity when
loading the vehicle. For more information on vehicle
capacity and loading, seeLoading the Vehicle
on
page 5‑31.
Be sure the cargo is properly loaded.
.If small heavy objects are placed on the roof, place
the load in the area over the rear wheels (behind
the rear side door on Yukon XL Denali models).
If needed, cut a piece of 3/8 inch plywood to fit
inside the crossrails and siderails to spread the
load. If plywood is used, tie it to the siderail
supports.
.Tie the load to the crossrails or the siderail
supports. Use the crossrails only to keep the load
from sliding. To move the crossrails, pull out on
the latch release handle at each end. Slide the
crossrail to the desired position balancing the force
side to side. Push the release handle back into the
latched position and slide the crossrail back and
forth slightly to be sure the latch snaps securely
into place.
.If needed to carry long items, move the crossrails
as far apart as possible. Tie the load to the
crossrails and the siderails or siderail supports.
Also tie the load to the bumpers, but do not tie the
load so tightly that the crossrails or siderails are
damaged.
.To reduce wind noise, put the front crossrail
approximately 18 to 24 inches (46 to 58 cm) to the
front supports.
.After moving a crossrail, be sure it is securely
locked into the siderail.
A Center High-Mounted Stoplamp (CHMSL) is located
above the rear window. Make sure items are loaded on
the roof of the vehicle, do not block or damage the
CHMSL.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo while driving,
periodically stop and check to make sure the luggage
and cargo is still securely fastened.
Rear Storage Area
For vehicles with a rear storage area, it is located in the
rear cargo area of the vehicle on the driver's side trim
panel.
Turn the knobs and swing the storage door to access
the storage compartment. The door can be removed.
Convenience Net
Use the convenience net, located in the rear, to store
small loads as far forward as possible. The net should
not be used to store heavy loads.

Cargo Cover
{WARNING:
An improperly stored cargo cover could be thrown
about the vehicle during a collision or sudden
maneuver. Someone could be injured. If the cover
is removed, always store it in the proper storage
location. When it is replaced, always be sure that
it is securely reattached.
To use the cargo cover, if equipped: 1. Pull the cover handle toward the rear of the vehicle.
2. Latch the cover posts into the retaining sockets on the cargo area trim panels.
To return the cover to the retracted position: 1. Pull up on the cover handle to release the cover posts from the retaining sockets.
2. Let the cover move forward to the full retracted position. To remove the cover from a regular wheelbase model:
1. Let the cover go all the way into the holder.
2. Then, grasping the driver's side cover end cap, push the cover end cap toward the passenger side
of the vehicle.
3. Swing the cover rearward and take it out of the vehicle.
To put the cover in the vehicle: 1. Make sure the cover slot in the holder faces rearward with the round surface facing down.
2. Then, hold the cover at an angle and place the cover end cap into the slot in the passenger side
trim panel.
3. Move the other end of the cover forward and hold it next to the driver's side trim panel slot.
4. Press the end caps in, to allow the cover to fit into the trim slot.
5. Pull lightly on the cover holder to make sure it is secure.
On extended wheelbase models there are two
cover positions. The slots furthest forward allow
the cover to be used if the third seat is removed or
folded down. The cover can be installed and
removed from either side.

Cargo Tie Downs
If the vehicle has cargo tie downs located in the rear
cargo area, these can be used to strap cargo down and
keep it from moving inside the vehicle.
Sunroof
Your vehicle may be equipped with a power sliding
sunroof. To open or close the sunroof, the ignition
needs to be turned to ON/RUN, or Retained Accessory
Power (RAP) must be active. When RAP is active, the
sunroof will work for 10 minutes after the ignition is
turned off, or until a front door is opened. SeeRetained
Accessory Power (RAP)
on page 3‑26for more
information.
There are two switches in
the overhead console that
operate the sunroof.
Manual-Open/Manual-Close : To open the sunroof
press and hold the rear of the driver's side switch until
the sunroof reaches the desired position. To close the
sunroof, press and hold the front of the driver's side
switch until the sunroof reaches the desired position.
The sunshade will open automatically with the sunroof,
but can also be opened manually.
The sunroof has a comfort stop feature which stops the
sunroof from opening to the full-open position. From the
comfort stop position, press the rear of the driver's side
switch a second time to open the sunroof to the
full-open position.
When the sunroof is opened, an air deflector will
automatically raise. The air deflector will retract when
the sunroof is closed.
