Trunk Release Handle (Convertible Only)
NOTICE:
The trunk release handle was not designed to be
used to tie down the trunk lid or as an anchor
point when securing items in the trunk. Improper
use of the trunk release handle could damage it.
There is a glow-in-the-dark trunk release handle located
on the inside wall of the trunk near the floor. The handle
will be on the passenger's side. This handle will glow
following exposure to light. Pull the release handle
down to open the trunk from the inside.
Theft
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities.
Although your vehicle has a number of theft
-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on it can make
it impossible to steal. However, there are ways you
can help.
Key in the Ignition
If you leave your vehicle with the keys inside, it's an
easy target for joy riders or professional thieves
-- so
don't do it.
When you park your vehicle and open the driver's door,
you'll hear a chime reminding you to remove your key
from the ignition and take it with you. Always do this.
Your steering wheel will be locked, and so will your
ignition. If you take the key with you, and you have an
automatic transmission, it will be locked. And remember
to lock the doors.

Push forward on the larger part of the latch until it
clicks. Do not force the latch. If it is hard to lock, the
top is not properly aligned.
NOTICE:
The convertible top may be tight when pushing
forward on the latch when your vehicle is new,
but it will loosen up with time. Make sure that
the hooks are properly aligned before using any
kind of force.
If your vehicle has a power loss, such as a dead battery,
you can still raise or lower the top manually by turning
the valve in the driver's side of the trunk.1. Open the hatch and find the tab located along the
driver's side trim panel.
2. Lift up the tab and turn the valve clockwise to
release the hydraulic pressure.
3. Make sure the key is in LOCK.
You can now raise or lower your top manually. Be sure
to close the valve after installing your top so you can
raise or lower it electrically later.

To eject the magazine from the player, slide the CD
changer door all the way open. The magazine will
automatically eject. Remember to keep the door closed
whenever possible to keep dirt and dust from getting
inside the changer.
Whenever a CD magazine with discs is loaded in the
changer, the compact disc symbol will appear on the
radio display. If the CD changer is checking the
magazine for CDs, the compact disc symbol will
flash on the display until the changer is ready to play.
When a CD begins playing, CD will appear in the
bottom left corner and a disc and track number will be
displayed. The disc numbers are listed on the front of
the magazine.
All of the CD functions are controlled by the radio
pushbuttons except for ejecting the magazine.

If an E and a number appear on the display, an error has
occurred and the compact disc temporarily cannot play.
The CD changer will send an error message to the
receiver to indicate one of the following:
E30: Disc Label Side Up
E34: CD Changer Door Open
E35: CD Changer Cartridge Empty
If an error occurs other than one listed previously while
trying to play a CD in the compact disc player or changer,
the following conditions may have caused the error:
The road is too rough. The disc should play when the
road is smoother.
The disc is dirty, scratched or wet.
The air is very humid. If so, wait about an hour and
try again.
If the CD is not playing correctly, for any other
reason, try a known good CD.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error can't be
corrected, contact your dealer. If your radio displays an
error message, write it down and provide it to your
dealer when reporting the problem.
