Your vehicle may be equipped with an extendable bed step on the driver’s side of the tailgate to provide easier entry and exit into the truck bed.

1 — Bed Step |

2 — Foot Tab |
To extend the bed step, place your foot on the protruding foot tab located on the left edge of the bed step, and push rearward. A small amount of force will release the spring load, and extend the bed step out and away from the tailgate.
Once the spring load is overcome, the bed step will extend out quickly, so be sure to stand in a position that will avoid coming into contact with the step as it extends.
Bed Step (Extended)
To stow the bed step back under the tailgate, push the bed step forward with your foot until the bed step is retracted by the spring load.
Do not attempt to stow the bed step with your hands. The low clearance space between the bed step and the rear bumper as the bed step returns to the stowed position could result in injury to your hands or fingers.
