D When placing the Cargo Cover Panels (If Equipped) bows, locate the small notches in the side rails. These notches receive the tang on the bow ends and help the bows seat into place. CAUTION: An improperly stored cargo cover could be thrown about the vehicle during a collision or sudden maneuver. You or others could be injured. If you remove the cover, always store it in its proper position in the cargo panel storage bag with the bag securely attached to the cargo tie downs. When you put it back, always be sure that it is securely reattached. D When reinstalling the tonneau cover, start at the front (near the cab). Place the plastic lip into the front rail then the rear rail and finish with the side rails. To clean the tonneau cover, use mild soap and water. If necessary, use a soft bristle brush to remove dirt trapped in the grain of the material. NOTICE: Each cargo cover is designed to support 250 lbs. (113 kg) each on top of them. Exceeding the weight limit can damage the cargo covers. This damage would not be covered by your vehicle's warranty. Your vehicle may be equipped with a three-piece cargo cover system. The cargo panels can be removed and stored in the cargo area of the vehicle with the cargo panel storage bag. 2-73
