Rambox if equipped
The RamBox system is an integrated pickup box storage and cargo management system consisting of three fea- tures: • Integrated box side storage bins • Cargo extender/divider • Bed rail tie-down system
RamBox Integrated Box Side Storage Bins
Cargo storage bins are located on both sides of the pickup box. The cargo storage bins provide watertight, lockable, illuminated storage for up to 150 lbs (68 kg) of evenly distributed cargo.
RamBox Cargo Storage Bins
CAUTION! Failure to follow the following items could cause damage to the vehicle:
Assure that all cargo inside the storage bins is properly secured.
Do not exceed cargo weight rating of 150 lb (68 kg) per bin.
To open a storage bin, press and release the button located on the lid. The RamBox lid will open upward to allow hand access. Lift the lid to fully open.
RamBox Pushbutton And Lock
The interior of the RamBox will automatically illumi- nate when the lid is opened. In addition to the automatic illumination switch, there is a manual on/off switch located at the rear of each storage bin. Pushing the switch once will turn off the bin lights, pushing the switch again will turn the lights back on.
CAUTION! Leaving the lid open for extended periods of time could cause the vehicle battery to discharge. If the lid is required to stay open for extended periods of time, it is recommended that the bin lights be turned off manually using the on/off switch.
The RamBox storage bins can be locked using the vehicle key. To lock the storage bin, insert the key into the keyhole on the pushbutton and turn clockwise to lock.
RamBox Light Switch
CAUTION!
Ensure cargo bin lids are closed and latched before moving or driving vehicle.
Loads applied to the top of the bin lid should be minimized to prevent damage to the lid and latching/hinging mechanisms.
Damage to the RamBox bin may occur due to heavy/sharp objects placed in bin that shift due to vehicle motion. In order to minimize potential for damage, secure all cargo to prevent movement and protect inside surfaces of bin from heavy/sharp objects with appropriate padding.
Cargo bins feature two removable drain plugs (to allow water to drain from bins). To remove plug, pull up on the edge. To install push plug downward into drain hole.
NOTE: Provisions are provided in the bins for cargo dividers and shelf supports. These accessories (in addi- tion to other RamBox accessories) are available from MOPAR .
RamBox Safety Warning
Carefully follow these warnings to help prevent personal injury or damage to your vehicle:
WARNING!
Always close the storage bin covers when your
vehicle is unattended.
Do not allow children to have access to the storage
bins. Once in the storage bin, young children may not be able to escape. If trapped in the storage bin, children can die from suffocation or heat stroke.
In an accident, serious injury could result if the storage bin covers are not properly latched.
Do not drive the vehicle with the storage bin covers open.
Keep the storage bin covers closed and latched while the vehicle is in motion.
Do not use a storage bin latch as a tie down.

Storage Bin Cover Emergency Release Lever If Equipped
As a security measure, a Storage Bin Cover Emergency Release is built into the storage bin cover latching mecha- nism.
NOTE: In the event of an individual being locked inside the storage bin, the storage bin cover can be opened from inside of the bin by pulling on the glow-in-the-dark lever attached to the storage bin cover latching mechanism.
Bed Extender If Equipped
The bed extender has three functional positions: • Storage Position • Divider Position • Extender Position
Storage Position
The storage position for the bed extender is at the front of the truck bed which maximizes the bed cargo area when not in use.

WARNING! To reduce the risk of potential injury or property damage:
Cargo must be secured.
Do not exceed cargo load rating of your vehicle.
Secure all loads to truck utilizing cargo tie downs.
Extender should not be used as cargo tie down.
When vehicle is in motion do not exceed 150 lbs (68 kg) load on the tailgate.
The bed extender is not intended for off road use.
When not in use, the extender/divider should be in stowed or divider position with the tailgate closed.
When in use all handles are to be in the locked position.

Bed Rail Tie-Down System
CAUTION! The maximum load per cleat should not exceed 250 lbs (113 kg) and the angle of the load on each cleat should not exceed 60 degrees above horizontal, or damage to the cleat or cleat rail may occur.
There are two adjustable cleats on each side of the bed that can be used to assist in securing cargo.
Each cleat must be located and tightened down in one of the detents, along either rail, in order to keep cargo properly secure. To move the cleat to any position on the rail, turn the nut counterclockwise, approximately three turns. Then pull out on the cleat and slide it to the detent nearest the desired location. Make sure the cleat is seated in the detent and tighten the nut.
To remove the cleats from the utility rail, remove the end cap by pushing up on the locking tab, located on the bottom of the end cap. Slide the cleat off the end of the rail.
