Opening the Trunk (Sedan Only)
Press the button twice within three seconds to open the trunk.
Make sure the trunk is closed and latched before driving your vehicle.
An unlatched trunk may cause objects to fall out or block the driver’s
rear view.
Smart Locks (If Equipped)
This feature helps to prevent you from locking yourself out of your
vehicle if your key is still in the ignition.
When you open one of the front doors and lock your vehicle with the
power door lock control (on the driver or passenger door trim panel), all
the doors will lock, then all doors will automatically unlock reminding
you that your key is still in the ignition.
Your vehicle can still be locked, with the key in the ignition, by locking
the driver door with a key or using the lock control on the remote
control.
If both front doors and the liftgate are closed, your vehicle can be locked
from any method, regardless of whether the key is in the ignition or not.
Illuminated Entry (If Equipped)
The interior lamps and parking lamps will illuminate when you use the
remote control to unlock the doors or when you open any door.
The illuminated entry system will turn off the lights:
•if you switch the ignition on,
•if you press the remote control lock button,
•after 25 seconds of illumination.
The interior lights will not turn off if:
•you turn them on with the dimmer control, or
•any door is open.
