DESCRIPTION
The tail gate opens upward and
utilizes a single-sheet construction.
Thus, luggage can be loaded and unloaded
conveniently.
The tail gate stay utilizes a gas
spring (filled with nitrogen gas) which
increases the operating smoothness
and improves the external appearance.
Note: The tail gate stay is filled with
highly compressed nitrogen gas. Do
not disassemble it.
In order to ease tail gate installation
and removal, split type hinges are
used. The hinges are secured with both
side installation screws.
A push-button type tail gate lock
has been adopted. When the pushbutton
is locked, the push-button can
be depressed but not unlocked.
