Your vehicle can be equipped with a steel grid that helps prevent objects in the cargo area frommoving forward into the passenger compart-ment.
The steel grid is made up of the grid itself and two separate mounting brackets. Each of thebrackets has a screw cover and there are twoplastic sleeves for the grid.
WARNING
• No one should ever be allowed to remain in the cargo compartment when the vehi-cle is moving.
• The steel grid may only be used in therear position described in this article. Theceiling attachment points above the front seats are
not intended to anchor the
steel grid.
• The third row of seats (7-seat models
*

• After being mounted, be sure that thesteel grid is securely anchored in place.
Mounting1. Fold down the rear seats (second row of
seats in 7-seat models) and lift in the steel grid through one of the rear doors or the tail-gate. The curved (convex) side of the gridshould face toward the cargo compartmentand the hooks on each side of the gridshould face upward. The mounting bracketsand plastic sleeves are not needed in thisstep.
2. Press one of the grid's hooks into the largerpart of the opening in the ceiling attachment point (1) as shown in the illustration.
3. Grasp the grid near the hook and move it toward the smaller opening (2).
