CAUTION:

sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and
using a safety belt properly.
You can open the tailgate by pulling up on the outside
handle while pulling the tailgate down.
When you put the tailgate back up, be sure it latches
securely.
On vehicles with a locking tailgate, use the ignition key.
