TONNEAU COVER

• The Tonneau Cover can be removed and reinstalled by using the locking clamps

located underneath the Tonneau Cover.

NOTE:
Be sure that the Tonneau Cover is secured before driving.

EASY-OFF TAILGATE

• To simplify mounting of a camper unit with an overhang, the tailgate can be

removed.

NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with a rear camera or RKE the electrical connector must
be disconnected prior to removing the tailgate.

Removing the Tailgate
• Disconnect the wiring harness for the rear camera or RKE (if equipped).
• Unlatch the tailgate and remove the support cables by releasing the lock tang from

the pivot.

• Raise the right side of the tailgate until the right side pivot clears the hanger

bracket.

• Slide the entire tailgate to the right to free the left side pivot.
• Remove the tailgate from the vehicle.

NOTE:
Do not carry the tailgate loose in the truck pickup box.

Locking Tailgate
• The lock is located next to the tailgate handle. The tailgate can be locked using the

vehicle key.

WARNING!

To avoid inhaling carbon monoxide, which is deadly, the exhaust system on
vehicles equipped with “Cap or Slide-In Campers” should extend beyond the
overhanging camper compartment and be free of leaks.
