Rear Storage Compartment
The rear cargo area storage compartment cover is held by a spring-loaded latch. In order to remove the rear storage compartment cover, use the following procedure:
NOTE: The rear storage compartment latch should not be used as cargo tie-down.
1. Flip up the pull loop so it is perpendicular (straight up) to the top surface of the tray.
2. Pull up on the loop and twist it 90 degrees, so it is parallel to the slotted hole in the tray.
3. Open the rear compartment cover.
