Adults are advised to familiarize
themselves with the operation and
location of the release handle.

the luggage compartment following
brief exposure to ambient light.
The “T” shaped handle will be
located either on the luggage
compartment door (lid) or inside
the luggage compartment near the
tail lamps.
