Tiedown Hooks
CAUTION:
Don't use the tiedown hooks under
the front and rear for towing.
They are designed ONLY for tying down the vehicle when it's being transported. Using them for towing will damage the bumper.
Tiedown Hooks
1. Remove the tiedown eyelet, lug wrench, and jack lever from the trunk.
2. Wrap the jack lever with a soft cloth to prevent damage to the bumper and open the cap located on the front and rear bumper.
CAUTION:
The cap cannot be completely
removed. Do not use excessive force
as it may damage the cap or scratch
the painted bumper surface.
3. Securely install the tiedown eyelet using the lug wrench.
4. Hook the tying rope to the tiedown eyelet.
CAUTION:
If the tiedown eyelet is not securely
tightened, it may loosen or disengage
from the bumper when tying down
the vehicle. Make sure that the
tiedown eyelet is securely tightened
to the bumper.
