GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 103
(Continued)
Gas props support the liftgate in the open posi-
tion. However, because the gas pressure drops
with temperature, it may be necessary to assist
the props when opening the liftgate in cold
weather.
NOTE:
Allow the power system to open the liftgate.
Manually pushing or pulling the liftgate may
activate the liftgate obstacle detection feature
and stop the power operation or reverse its
direction.
Cargo Area Features
Cargo Area Storage
When the third row seats are not in the stowed
position, there is a large area for cargo storage.
Rear Cargo Area
NOTE:
With all rear seats stowed or removed, 4 x 8 ft
(1.2 x 2.4 m) sheets of building material will fit
on the vehicle floor with the liftgate closed. The
front seats must be moved slightly forward of
the rearmost position.
Stow ‘n Vac Integrated Vacuum — If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with an inte-
grated vacuum system. This vacuum is for
in-vehicle use only and should only be used on
dry materials and on in-vehicle surfaces. It is
located in the rear trim panel behind the sliding
door on the driver’s side of the vehicle.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using. When using
your vacuum, basic precautions should be
followed, including the following:
WARNING!
During power operation, personal injury or
cargo damage may occur. Ensure the liftgate
travel path is clear. Make sure the liftgate is
closed and latched before driving away.
WARNING!
 Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle unat-
tended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seriously
or fatally injured. Children should be
warned not to touch the parking brake,
brake pedal or the gear selector.
