sunroof opening to minimize the buffeting.

The trunk lid can be released from inside the vehicle by
pressing the TRUNK RELEASE button located on the

switch. Such entrapment may result in serious
injury or death.

thrown from a vehicle with an open sunroof. You
could also be seriously injured or killed. Always
fasten your seat belt properly and make sure all
passengers are also properly secured.(Continued)
