Convenient hook
CAUTION
.
Do not hang items on the con-
venient hook that weigh 6 lbs (3
kg) or more. Depending on the
conditions of use (for example, in
low temperatures, etc.), the rear
gate may lower even with lighter
loads. However, this is not a
malfunction. Be careful not to
hit your head or other body parts.
.
When using the convenient hook,
do not try to close the rear gate.
Doing so may cause the item on
the hook to be jammed in the rear
gate and damaged. Remove the
item from the hook before clos-
ing the rear gate.
A convenient hook is attached to the rear
gate trim. When the rear gate is open, you
can hang a candle lantern, wet suit, etc.
on the hook.
Cargo area cover (if
equipped)
The cargo area cover is provided for
covering the cargo area and to protect its
contents from direct sunlight. This cover is
detachable to make room for additional
cargo.
