INTERIOR TRUNK LID RELEASE
WARNING
Closely supervise children when they are
around cars to prevent them from playing
and becoming locked in the trunk where
they could be seriously injured. Keep the
car locked, with the rear seatback and
trunk lid securely latched when not in use,
and prevent children’s access to car keys.
The interior trunk lid release mechanism provides
a means of escape for children and adults in the
event they become locked inside the trunk.To open the trunk from the inside, rotate the
illuminated lever
1until the lock releases and
push up on the trunk lid. The release lever is made
of a material that glows in the dark after a brief
exposure to ambient light.
The handle is located inside the trunk compart-
ment on the trunk lock at the center of the trunk
lid.
OPENER OPERATION
The fuel-filler lid release is located below the
instrument panel. To open the fuel-filler lid, pull
the release. To lock, close the fuel-filler lid se-
curely.
