CAUTION:
Do not use excessive force as it
may damage the cap or scratch
the painted bumper surface.
The rear bumper cover cannot be

bumper cover could result in it
being damaged.
NOTE:
Remove the front bumper cover completely and
store it so as not to lose it.

CAUTION:
If the tiedown eyelet is not securely
tightened, it may loosen or
disengage from the bumper when
tying down the vehicle. Make sure

tightened to the bumper.
