Unlocking the trunk with the master key
Normally, the trunk should be locked and unlocked via the central locking system using the remote control or by using
the key in the driver's door lock. The master key should be used only if it is not possible to unlock the trunk via the
central locking system.
NOTE: Unlocking the trunk in this manner will cause the alarm to sound. See page 61
for information on
turning off the alarm. Unlocking the trunk this way will not unlock the other doors.
If, for any reason, it should be necessary to unlock the trunk with the master key:
· Press the key into the upper or lower edge of the cover over the lock in the trunk lid.
· Move the key upward or downward to remove the cover.
· Insert the master key in the lock and unlock the trunk.
Opening the trunk from the inside - (U.S. models only)
The S80 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.
NOTE: This handle is not intended to be used to anchor the trunk lid when long loads are being transported.
WARNING!
Keep vehicle doors and trunk locked and keep keys out of a child's reach. Unsupervised 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 temperatures for even a short period of time can cause heat-related injury or death. Small children are
particularly at risk.
