When a "click" is heard and the red marking on each end piece has disappeared, the cargo cover is attached - check that it is affixed securely.

Usage

There are two extended positions for the cargo cover - a full-cover position and a work position, where it is partially extended to make it easier to reach further into the cargo area.

 Important

Avoid loading objects on top of the cargo cover in extended position.

 Warning

In a 7-seat car, never have the cargo cover fitted when there are passengers in the rear seats. This may lead to serious injury in the event of a collision.

Retracting

From the full-cover position:
Lift up the handle and pull it backward to disengage the cargo cover's attachment pins and then release.
From work position:
Grip the handle and pull out the cargo cover in the grooves - pull to the full-cover position. Lift up the handle and pull it backward to disengage the attachment pins and then release.
Retract the cover with its attachment pins outside of the side panels until it stops in the retracted position.

Removal1

In retracted position:

Depress the button on one of the retracted cargo cover's end pieces and lift out that end.

In a 7-seat car - release the third seat row's seatbelt locking tabs from the hooks above the side panels.

Angle the cover up/out carefully.
The other end piece loosens automatically and the cover can be lifted out of the cargo area.
