Your vehicle may have a fully insulated food/beverage console/cooler located between the driver's and front passenger's seats. To properly secure the console/cooler the handle must be latched down. Push the handle toward the driver's seat, until you hear a click. To open the console/cooler, have the handle fully down toward the passenger's seat, then lift the lid up. The passenger's seat armrest must be up to be able to open the lid completely. The console/cooler contains a top tray for storage. Remove the top tray to put items in the cooler. The cooler also can hold compact discs, cassette tapes, and it may have a coinholder. To remove the console/cooler from the vehicle, lift the handle from the driver's side to a fully upright position. Notice: Loading objects that weigh over 400 lbs (181 kg) onto the sliding rear convenience tray may cause damage. Repairs would not be covered by your warranty. Do not load heavy objects on the sliding rear convenience tray. Rear Storage Area There are four small storage compartments in the rear of your vehicle. One is on the passenger's side, two are on the driver's side and one is on the floor by the tailgate. To remove the covers, lift up on the tabs. If your vehicle has the 10-speaker system, the compartment on the passenger's side and the long compartment on the driver's side will be equipped with speakers. 2-37
