The cargo tray is provided to protect the cargo area carpet. This cargo tray is removable to facilitate easy clean up.

Clean with a cloth when necessary using mild soap and water. It is important that the bottom of the liner is dry before placing it back in the cargo area, as mildew may result.

It is important that the cargo tray is not installed if the cargo area carpet is damp or wet, as mildew may result. Dry the carpet completely before the cargo tray is installed.

Upon installation after prolonged storage, you may notice that the tray does not completely lay flat. This is only temporary.

To help return the tray to its original shape, place the tray on the floor of the vehicle with a weight on each corner.
