trunk lid securely latched when not in use,
and prevent children’s access to car keys.
The interior trunk lid release mechanism provides

burned. Do not drive with the air cleaner
removed, and be careful when working
on the engine with the air cleaner
removed.
cNever pour fuel into the throttle body or
attempt to start the engine with the air
cleaner removed. Doing so could result
in serious injury.
