button forward to the “Unlock” position
(red mark on button visible).

If the inner door handle of driver’s side door is pulled when the door lock but-
ton is in lock position, the button is
unlocked and door opens. (if equipped) Front doors cannot be locked if the
ignition key is in the ignition switch and
door is open.
If you lock the front passenger’s door with door lock button, all vehicle doors
will lock automatically.

doors will not lock when the front por-
tion of central door lock switch is

Operate the door unlock feature
repeatedly (both electronic and
manual) while simultaneously
pulling on the door handle.
Operate the other door locks and handles, front and rear.

side.
Lower the rear seats (if equipped), move to the cargo

Knowing your vehicle
Inside the vehicle
To open the trunk from inside the vehicle,
pull the trunk lid release lever.
Emergency trunk safety release
(if equipped)
Your 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,
pulling this handle will release the trunk
latch mechanism and open the trunk.
WARNING- Exhaust
fumes
If you drive with the trunk lid open,
you will draw dangerous exhaust
fumes into your vehicle causing
serious injury or death to vehicle
occupants. Open trunk lids can also
dangerously obscure rear view
vision.
If you must drive with the trunk lid
open, keep the air vents open so
that additional outside air comes
into the vehicle.
1JBA30771JBN6017
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.
CAUTION
If a person is locked in the trunk,they can pull the emergencyrelease to open the trunk lid.
We recommend that cars be kept locked and keys be kept out ofthe reach of children, and thatparents teach their children about the dangers of playing in trunks.
