Chevrolet avalanche 2002 用户手册

Use the ignition/door key to unlock/lock the tailgate.

Open the tailgate by lifting up on its handle while
pulling the tailgate toward you.

To shut the tailgate, firmly push it upward until it latches.   

After you put the tailgate back up, pull it back towards
you to be sure it is latched securely.

The tailgate on your vehicle can be removed to allow for
different loading situations. Although the tailgate can be
removed without assistance, you may want someone to
assist you with the removal to avoid possible damage to
the vehicle.

To remove the tailgate, do the following:

1. Raise the tailgate

slightly and release 
both retaining cable
clips. To release the
retaining cable clips, 
lift the cable so it points
straight out and push 
the cable clip forward.

2. With the tailgate at a slight upward angle, pull back

on the tailgate at the right edge and then move the
tailgate to the right to release the left edge.

Reverse the above procedure to reinstall. Make sure the
tailgate is secure.
