If your vehicle is equipped with a trunk lid
unlatch switch (1), push and hold the trunk
lid unlatch switch (1) and lift the trunk lid to
open the trunk lid.
The trunk lid unlatch switch (1) operates
when the keyless start system remote con-
troller is within the switch’s operating
range.
The trunk lid unlatch switch (1) operates
only to open the trunk lid.
If you close the trunk lid with the keyless
start system remote controller left in the
trunk with all the doors locked, the trunk
will be automatically unlatched.
80JC005
You can unlock the lid by pulling the
release lever located to the outboard side
of the driver’s seat.
Internal Trunk Release
(SX4 SEDAN)
54G297
There is a release lever located inside the
trunk, on the rear part of the trunk lid. This
lever is for emergency use so that if a per-
son, such as a child, gets trapped in the
trunk compartment, he can exit the vehicle.
The lever glows in the dark, after a brief
exposure to ambient light, so it can be
found easily. It is operated by pushing it
down in the direction of the arrow.

WARNING
Always make sure that the trunk lid is
closed and latched securely. Other-
wise, it may open unexpectedly while
driving. Completely closing it also
helps keep exhaust gases from enter-
ing the car.
WARNING
To help avoid situations where some-
one might get trapped in the trunk,
keep your vehicle locked when unat-
tended, and do not allow anyone to
play in the trunk.EXAMPLE
