3Emergency trunk safety releaseYour vehicle is equipped with an emer-
gency trunk release cable located inside
the trunk. The lever glows in the dark
when the trunk lid is closed. If someone
is inadvertently locked in the trunk, mov-
ing the handle in the direction of the
arrow will release the trunk latch mecha-

OGH026009
WARNING
No one should be allowed to occu-
py the trunk of the vehicle at any
time. If the trunk is partially or total-
ly latched and the person is unable
to get out, severe injury or death
could occur due to lack of ventila-
tion, exhaust fumes and rapid heat
build-up, or because of exposure to
cold weather conditions. The trunk
is also a highly dangerous location
in the event of a crash because it is
not a protected occupant space but
merely a part of the vehicle’s crush
zone.
WARNING
If a person is locked in the trunk,
they can pull the emergency
release to open the trunk lid.
We recommend that cars be kept locked and keys be kept out of
the reach of children, and that
parents teach their children about
the dangers of playing in trunks.
