LOCKS AND ALARM
161
Opening the trunk manually
The trunk is held closed by an electronic locking
mechanism. To open:
1. Press lightly on the rubberized plate under
the handle to release the lock.
2. Lift the handle to open the trunk lid.
CAUTION
•
When pressing the rubberized plate, only
light pressure is necessary to release the
trunk's electronic locking mechanism.
•
When opening the trunk lid, pull it up
using the handle. Too much pressure on
the rubberized plate can damage its elec-
trical connections.
Locking the trunk with the remote key
–
Press the lock button on the remote key.
The alarm indicator on the dashboard will begin
flashing to show that the vehicle is locked and
that the alarm has been armed.
NOTE
•
If the doors are locked while the trunk is
open, the trunk will remain unlocked until
the vehicle is relocked by pressing the
Lock button on the remote key.
•
On keyless drive vehicles, the gear selec-
tor must be in the Park (P) position, all
doors and the trunk must be closed and
the ignition must be switched off before
the vehicle can be locked.
Opening the trunk from the inside (U.S.
models only)
The vehicle is equipped with a florescent handle
on the inside of the trunk lid, which can be used
in an emergency situation to open the trunk from
the inside. Pull the handle down to release the
trunk lid. After use, the handle must be pushed
back into its original position before the trunk can
be closed.
This handle is not intended to be used to anchor
the trunk lid when long loads are being transpor-
ted.
WARNING
•
Keep vehicle doors and trunk locked and
keep keys out of a child’s reach. Unsuper-
vised children could lock themselves in an
open trunk and risk injury. Children should
be taught not to play in vehicles.
•
On hot days, the temperature in the trunk
or vehicle interior can rise very quickly.
Exposure of people to these high temper-
atures for even a short period of time can
cause heat-related injury or death. Small
children are particularly at risk.
