2010 CHRYSLER SEBRING CONVERTIBLE display

The trunk release button on the dash
will be disabled if the vehicle is locked
by pressing the power door lock
switch or by pressing the LOCK but-
ton on the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter. The trunk release
button will be enabled when the ve-
hicle is unlocked by the RKE or if the
key is inserted into the ignition and
turned to ON or START.
NOTE: This provides a locked area in the vehicle even
if the convertible top is open.
To unlatch the trunk lid from outside the vehicle, press
and release the TRUNK RELEASE button on the RKE
transmitter two times. With the ignition ON, the word “deck” will display in the
odometer indicating the trunk is open. The odometer
display will reappear once the trunk is closed or if the
trip button is pressed.
With the ignition switch in the LOCK position or with the
key out, the word “deck” will display until the trunk is
closed.
On vehicles equipped with the Electronic Vehicle Infor-
mation Center (EVIC), the words “Trunk Ajar” will
display.

WARNING! (Continued)
•When using the power top switch on the instru-
ment panel, if potential danger exists while raising
the top, release the switch immediately to inter-
rupt the operation.
•Only drive the vehicle with the convertible top
completely closed and latched or fully lowered
into its stowage compartment.
•Do not operate the power top when the vehicle is
in motion.
Cargo Shield
The cargo shield is located in the trunk. Before lowering
the convertible top, you must unfold the cargo shield and
seat the tabs at each end of the cargo shield in the V slots
in the trunk liner. Doing so closes a switch that allows top
operation. If the switch is not closed, a warning message
displays in the instrument cluster to notify the driver.
